Thomas BrandGuys, I think I downloaded the wrong developer release. My Mac OS GUI is looking a lot more polished and refined than what I am seeing on apple.com

The inspiration for this was for sure the Massimo Vignelli map that was released in 1972. Bad for judging actual distances, but great for navigating the system! https://www.nytransitmuseum.org/vignelli/

Towards a Better Way: The "Vignelli" Map at 50

The honeymoon is over. My latest PCB shipment was double the cost. Prices on my web store will likely have to increase in order for me to maintain profitability. If you voted for this, you're the reason you're paying more now.

Not exactly revolutionary graphic designβnot like Beck's London Underground mapβbut at first glance, more legible.

A soviet spacecraft that was launched in 1972 is forecast for an uncontrolled re-entry likely on May 9th or 10th, 2025.
The Kosmos 482 descent craft is the lander module from a failed Soviet Venera mission to the planet Venus.
Its landing module, weighs in at 495 kg and is highly likely to reach the surface of Earth in one piece as it was designed to withstand 300 Gβs of acceleration and 100 atmospheres of pressure.

Alethea / Alecat / ChenonettaMy Adelaide coasters arrived! I'm super happy with the PCB, it came out beautifully.
Edit: These will be available as a prize for a stamp rally event at OzComicCon Adelaide, and after that I'll make them available for purchase on my store and any markets I appear at.
Edit2: The for-sale versions of this will be rebuilt with OSM data, as the original design was based on SnazzyMaps-styled Google Maps. There will be some differences.
Edit3: #Adelaide + #Canberra are live! https://shop.chenonetta.com/product/pcb-map-coasters/
