Victorian insanity

I am still here but it is going to take me a few years to get back to making videos. I have a little human to look after and train into my camera assistant and editor. Lol.

I could do the step file for a small cost - will have to look into it when I have some free time.

Maybe you can ask for the part to be reprinted and sent to you. Either that or re assemble the section to see if any debits had made it offset. It's possible to get the mini printing well but it's a process of trial and error.

@@SavvasPapasavva For now I've resolved it so that I wedged almost 2mm thick piece of plastic between the aluminium extrusion and the printed plastic part that holds the Z rods. I could only eyeball it but even so, a 170mm square now has less than 0,5mm difference on the diagonals, before that it had about 2,5mm. It's not easy to keep everything perpendicular when you're adjusting it... But damn. I'm still a bit in shock this happens on a Prusa printer. I've been printing for a couple of years with the mini, haven't noticed this before. But it is the first time I've printed large part where squareness is critical..

Exactly, only difference is the blend/branding and maybe how many times you smack the coffee pot onto the worktop.

And Greek. . . ?

It's, ok. The expression is, for shits and giggles.

I rushed those bit at the end as I was conscious of how long the video was. I mentioned those materials also at 03:10 in the video. But the principle is that the front facing mirror which is fitted to the rear wall of the camera lucida reflects from the outer most surface and not the rear wall. And the partially reflective piece that is position diagonally inside, remove or lessens the double image created by reflection which I think is happening on the diagonal piece. I should have compared the views looking into the lucida to make this more clear but you can jump to time code 15:50 which there is a slight double exposure especially at the top of the candle, and 16:50 where the image is a lot clearer. Regarding the files - I will upload those tomorrow as I've run out of time today. I'll add a link in the comments section once that is done. Thanks again for the comment!

Files are now available to download for free via my website shop: miscpro.com/shop/

@@SavvasPapasavva there is shipping fee on free download? I could agree for a donation. But?!

@@fbujold That's weird, I've updated the product listing to make it fully virtual. The download links should be in the product listing. Let me know if you still have any problems. Cheers.

He owed me a favour. Insect cosplay - that made me chuckle.

I normally talk to my cutlery, always making good points.

@@SavvasPapasavva I do the same but with my mouse and keyboard, very often includes rants.

It's catchy - I sing it often, to my cutlery.

Lol, I thought asmr was more to do with sound.

​​@@SavvasPapasavva so the sound with all the rubbing and tapping on the table and stuff isn't even intended XD, congratulations, you unknowingly made an asmr video. Though it might just be the spots I jumped to. I do have my sensory issues, so no problems on your end ^^ Just some of those sounds feel like fork in a plate/nails on chalkboard to me sometimes Edit: just had another quick look around, tapping on the table, crumpling the bag of beads, rolling the whisk around, wiping the table are all ASMR stuff. Also looking at the randomness of your videos, am I mistaken in thinking you might have ADHD?

​@@satibelIt hard to not have explicit sounds when a directional microphone is used. Best keep the volume low to compensate. I wanted this video to be just about the action of making the toy / object, which includes thinking time, opening bags, wiping down a worksurface. It's a sensory toy for a baby btw. Also I've been making videos before ASMR gimmick was a thing - and I'd often just have the sound of the making process, and background noise of the location (often emergency vehicles and aeroplanes passing by) without narration or music to change the experience. When I first began narrating I think a lot of the audience were surprised I wasn't from the states. It's amazing how people project onto the things they watch. Also back then, it was refreshing because simply making wasn't changed by the narrators performance or distracting music, from the reality of what it is like to be being alone with material and tools and to make something. Also no ADHD here - the channel is about making in it's broadest possible sense thus the original name for the channel being miscellaneous productions. In retrospect, had I just stuck make daD-I-Y videos, I'd probably have become a millionaire by now with a sponsorship deal from one of the tool giants.

Me too. Really looks like sweetcorn!
