@pmdj @mwichary @samburkhard the sewing machine one is the classical computer shape and we have strayed from God's light by not continuing that design

@xarph @pmdj @mwichary it’s a little weird but delightfully so. I like to imagine that you could put things in for wireless data transfer or for larger ones a little *succulent shelf*
