#100DaysToOffload day 26:

Today I tried to make a calculator to adjust the amount of pigment, for the volume of resin needed to print.

Seems to be fine but at first I read the values wrong and was using 1/10th of the required amount. So it was looking desaturated. Luckily I noticed before printing.

After getting the right saturation, I made the whole color triangle, it was harder than expected since every hexagon holds just 1ml of resin.

Except for a few spaces it ended looking pretty well, and helped me a lot to get the turquoise color. Couldn't get the red with this range so I had to use other paints.

Today I made some color tests to check the intensity of the resin pigments, left some more color swatches printing, so tomorrow i can check the color combinations.

Today I learned about top down design for mechanisms on #Freecad following MangoJellys Tutorial. It's amazing how much it improved in the last year.

I remember that some years ago I tried Freecad for the first time, and it was such an stressfull situation, that I abandoned it until I heard that 1.0 was realeased and tried it again.

Here is the tutorial I followed:

Here is the improved version, didn't print it since the first one works for me.

the improvements are:
- made a bigger box for 1$ coin, since the majority of the coins are those
- moved the deck to be on the top part, that allowed a wall to be placed between the tokens and the money to avoid mixing
- also made some micro adjustments to some dimensions for a better fit

Today I designed an insert for the boardgame Mascarade, after printing it I noticed that it can be improved a bit, by adding a wall to hold the cards in place and the tokens fit a bit better.

Will make the changes and upload it tomorrow.

On a last rush to finish reading an extra book before the end of the year, I read The Liminal Zone by junji ito.

The last story, Slumber, truly stood out to me. Is about a guy that vividly remembers committing murders, but the only possible explanation is that he did them while sleeping.

A couple days ago I finished reading My Home Hero by Naoki Yamakawa. And it's been one of the most intense mangas I've read. If you liked the anime, that's about just 1/4 of the whole story.

What started as an act of self defense quickly escalated. Until the point where Tetsu is just waiting when will his punishment come.

I don't understand how teslas got approved for robotaxis. It doesn't need to be perfect but it should be at least as good as an average person driving.

#100DaysToOffload day 17: It's really hard to return to posting after missing some days.

Seems that as more days go by, I start to get overwhelmed about all the stuff I thought to post but didn't. Until I realized that no one cares about that only me.
