did a lot of rapid prototyping between yesterday night and today to turn all the accessories for the FPV camera gadget I built around this time last year into a fully wearable kit / functional cybergoth-y outfit.

this has been a lot of learning and playing around with the MOLLE / PALS webbing system. There's a bunch of different ways things can be designed to go together here and I'm still getting my head around how to design for it but it's quite fun.

The dual 9V battery holder is working great (first time printing ASA as well, seems like an ideal material for these) and although the LED badge holder had a design flaw it turns out just cutting it in half made it perfectly usable and secure 😁

The FPV display is *okay* as it is right now but requires removing the back panel by removing screws (which requires bending the carrier to access), which is very unelegant. I would've liked to use MOLLE sticks here but I didn't find a nice way to get printable loops in the right spot or attach fabric straps without interfering with the internals for now...

todo for tomorrow is making two bases (MOLLE loop and wrist strap) for the new camera gadget design, which now features a sliding dovetail attachment to easily move the electronics between different bases.

Today I'm wearing my old Synthstrom shirt to celebrate the return of a Deluge at home. New music coming soon, hopefully!

I feel like there must be an art to the two-piece outfit that I'm missing. Three-piece outfits make sense - skirt or pants, inner t
top, scarf or jacket or outer top... or maybe a hat. You can match colors or textures or vibe on two pieces, and have a bit of contrast. But how does one coordinate two pieces that don't match?

Likewise, it feels weird to just wear one piece unless it's got a lot more going on than most things I own.

Got an appropriately timed funeral followed immediately by train back to work party tomorrow. So need to be both smart and seasonally appropriate, which gives us this.
