Comment on Faux Wood Grain using MMU!
cashmaggot@piefed.social 4 weeks agoYeah, you guys always amaze me. On account of being able to model things spatially in CAD-esq software. It's a skill I never picked up on, and one that I really enjoy seeing in practice =)

Reminds me! I took a video of the timeline playthrough for the design process.

Thanks btw! It took me a few years to get efficient with CAD being self taught. Still learning

Super cool, I'm gunna show the missus. She loves stuff like this. We're renting, but I hope someday I can set her up with a whole workshop and she can tinker away all day and night. Because it's what she loves most (as seen above). Any cool resources you'd like to point us towards? I'll pass them on and maybe we can figure out some kinda "micro" studio we could implement in our current situation. I miss being in a major city, because I miss creation-spaces. While I am absolutely awful at this stuff (as previously stated) I am really good with pen and paper stuff. Stuff I can get my hands on. And loved hanging with with folks like you while just doodling away in spaces like that =)

Shut the front door! My wifey just popped in and I showed her your work and she got green with envy and for sure is starting to have a think about how to create some kind of modular setup. Any recommendations for something small form then if you're working out of a closet? (I am also laughing because I once was a closet -> computer person and you do what you gotta do in life =P!)
Gunna pass those guys on and thanks a slew for everything even if we leave it at this =)!

If you guys ever have a project you want to do but don’t know how to go about it send me a message! You don’t need a local community when you have all of us on here!

Absolutely love this! Do you know if there's some kind of friend-esq thing on here? Else you know what I will do, I will just message you and put you in the logs and so if I need to reach out I can. Thank you!
