selfstyled: Day 10: Paper plate icosahedra
http://blog.selfstyled.ca/2011/02/day-10-paper-plate-icosahedra.html
The ramblings of a selfstyled connoisseur, on anything from programming to whisky to life on the wet coast and everything in between. Thursday, February 10, 2011. Day 10: Paper plate icosahedra. We needed some decorations for the school dance tomorrow night. Laurie D found a picture of an icosahedron. Then fold, and staple. These would be really cool to make out of interlocking pieces of plastic, and then lit from inside. They are quite stable once they are all put together (they are geodesics after all).

The ramblings of a selfstyled connoisseur, on anything from programming to whisky to life on the wet coast and everything in between. Friday, April 15, 2011. The hot end of the extruder is working. I can successfully melt ABS (thanks Neil! I still need to make something to push the filament through it. I'm using old-school MakerBot technology right now: a Mk3 heater barrel. The heater is driven by their PWM board. And temperature monitored by their thermistor board. Links to this post. Links to this post.

selfstyled: 1x2 RepRap

The ramblings of a selfstyled connoisseur, on anything from programming to whisky to life on the wet coast and everything in between. Saturday, March 12, 2011. I've been trying to build a RepRap. For quite a while now. The problem is that to make its parts you need to print them on a RepRap — a bit of a bootstrapping problem. Then I started to work on a RepStrap. I've done two designs based on the Contraptor. It’s very similar to a Prusa, with some advantages:. All connectors are made of wood.

Videostreaming OS X to Sony Bravia TV. Im folgenden Artikel möchte ich kurz erläutern wie man UPnP/DLNA-Server unter Mac OS X installiert um beliebigen Videocontent auf einem Sony Bravia darzustellen.

The ramblings of a selfstyled connoisseur, on anything from programming to whisky to life on the wet coast and everything in between. Thursday, February 17, 2011. Day 17: Oblique Strategies Deck. I've been wanting a physical Oblique Strategies. Although I really wanted to use two blank-faced decks (they were sold out). I whittled the 3rd Edition down to 104 strategies and then transcribed them onto the deck. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Victoria, BC, Canada. View my complete profile. Day 9: Mr Shoe.

The ramblings of a selfstyled connoisseur, on anything from programming to whisky to life on the wet coast and everything in between. Friday, February 25, 2011. Here is my latest artwork. I call it “QubeRs,” it’s 144 cubes that can be assembled into (small) QR codes. Each cube has the 6 possible combinations of 4 black and white pixels on it. One could also use these blocks to do B&W pixel art (welcome to the 1980s! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Victoria, BC, Canada. View my complete profile.

selfstyled: Polyhedra Construction Kit
http://blog.selfstyled.ca/2011/03/polyhedra-construction-kit.html
The ramblings of a selfstyled connoisseur, on anything from programming to whisky to life on the wet coast and everything in between. Sunday, March 20, 2011. When I was building the Valentine’s Dance decorations. For the next prototype, I am going to create a slot and tab on each edge instead, so there will be locking on both ends of the edge (right now these faces want to twist apart). Actually, V2 would look very similar to SlideTab. Ok, exactly like). In fact, here is the PDF. Victoria, BC, Canada.
