This is what I've been working towards for two years: a high-fire wild clay mixture without any store-bought or studio-supplied ingredients.

This mini bottle, minus the glaze, is made entirely from clays that i dug out of the ground, and it survived a cone 10 firing without melting or even slumping.

Now that I know it works, I can try actually making something big with it.

I am an orchid show taking a tour. The speaker, a lovely older lady, explained that growers are very generous in sharing cuttings freely and that their generosity "puts the 'whore' in 'horticulture!'" 😂

This is my sign for #NoKings on 3-28, but I’m hoping to use it for additional local protests against the proposed new #SanDiego jail

So many things to protest, I’ve got to start combining or there won’t be time to sew else 🙄

Since people seem to like the penguins, I have to post this photo, which somebody else on my ship took. I think it belongs in National Geographic. We saw two orcas chasing a poor penguin which darted underneath our ship multiple times to try to escape. Zoom in on the penguin's face to see its expression.

I recently returned from an incredible trip to Antarctica and I need everyone to look at my penguin photos.

Video of the illumination so far with a dumb LED controller. The plan is to program it to display messages.

Ended up needing a new sewing machine, but now that it's arrived, I've been able to finish sewing the Ouija messenger bag. The project has entered the hot-glue phase. Only a few LEDs left to go.

Planetary Gear Dreidels

'Tis the season for holiday displays, but Hanukkah doesn't always get the same kitschy, fun decor that other holidays do. In this project, you'll build a planetary gear that rotates three dreidels using an STSPIN220 silent stepper motor driver and a KB2040 running CircuitPython. It's giving Stu Pickles chaotic menorah energy from A Rugrats Chanukah Special.
