Q1: Hello. Some of us have created some very strange things over the years, what’s the strangest (for you) thing you have ever made? #MakersHour

I'm not sure what IS strange for me! Possibly the giant papier mache seeds for a show garden. Or the many costumes I made for Ratvaark and his friends.

Myself and @davetansley once spent way too much time printing and painting very tiny human skulls. They were for legitimate dice making purposes, but they were all over the house for a while there, it was pretty weird.

Oh blimey!
That would have given me the creeps a little, and a lot if I found one much later on!

They look brilliant, though.

@thegiddystitcher @MakersHour @davetansley they look like puffed wheat. Now i want smacks.

@thegiddystitcher @MakersHour @davetansley these would be an amazing way to cover the soil of pot plants 😂

@afewbugs @MakersHour That would definitely make it all even weirder, you've got me thinking now...

@afewbugs This sounds like the perfect gift idea for my skull-liking, plant-growing housemate; they'd love little skulls for this purpose. We already have all kinds of little random things in the plant pots... :)

Skulls are the glitter of Warhammer.

Also: Those dice are beautiful!

@thegiddystitcher @MakersHour @davetansley what did you do with the hundreds of leftover headless Citadel(?) skellies? 😀
Show threadMichelle / The Giddy StitcherMar 6
@WiteWulf @MakersHour @davetansley We actually 3d printed these so no headless skellies to deal with! Which is good, cos there's enough boxes of my old Tomb Kings army still lying around the place as it is...

@MakersHour i think that would be the double face camera, showing me to expose both sides of the film. Didn't work very well, but looked pleasantly monstrous.

Excellent!

You could do one with the camera in the eye piece, via a semi tranparent mirror.

@MakersHour #MakersHour A1: I'm gonna say that time I learned to draw by sketching one Pokemon a day until I ran out (I think after Sun/Moon, so just over a thousand days).

I started on a whim because I was bored and lonely and had been watching a lot of Bob Ross, and since then I haven't done much drawing because holding a pencil cramps my hand up.

@WizardOfDocs
It is the sort of thing I should do at some point to exercise my drawing hand.

Q1: Hello. Some of us have created some very strange things over the years, what’s the strangest (for you) thing you have ever made?

A1: I’m not sure to be honest. I don’t think I’ve made anything that’s strange. Maybe I have but I think they are perfectly normal…

That''s the thing for us too.

Is it strange, or is it just 'us'?!!

@MakersHour A1. Strangest make? Maybe a recent utilitarian patch, bright pink "duck tape" wrapped round the little fin antenna on our otherwise unremarkable electric hatchback sedan, to find it in parking lots among others of its style.

Otherwise most of my creations are theme and variations on needlework, appliqué, piecing, and digital collage.

Sometimes you need that marker in a big carpark, when so many cars can look similar.

@MakersHour As a teacher, I once was about to do the the magnet-and-iron-dust-on-paper experiment with my class, but discovered too late that we didn't have a magnet! What we did have, though, was a copper coil, some rusty nails, and a battery. I put the nails inside the coil, connected the battery and got the nails *just* magnetised enough to do the experiment and show the magnetic patterns. I made a magnet.

Excellent - a double lesson - what magnets do, and how they are made!

@eivind
That is a very good way around it, and shows other electromagnetic principles at the same time.

I noticed and photographed this in my workshop a while ago, while I was welding.

A1 oops late to the party this week. Strangest thing I've made ? I'd say some of my first attempts at blacksmithing have resulted in objects that are beat described as strange... Gotta learn somewhere...

@MakersHour Had a short term request to build a easter decoration within an afternoon.
Turned out slightly spooky...

(Might not be the strangest thing. But the first strange I found.)
