Flashback to the day we got our lab assistant

A week ago Blender terrified me. Today I finished my first render from scratch! BlenderGuru's guide on Youtube is excellent, so well paced and clear.

I can't wait to design more things in Blender, and hopefully print them out!

Instant follow!

And your change

My latest big 3D print of my own design is this custom macro pad: the Pip Deck 1000! I printed the majority of it in PLA on my CR-10 and printed the key caps in resin.

It's on printables if you fancy making your own! www.printables.com/model/920575...

This is my Lab Assistant, Ash. He's a Labrador-Border Collie mix and far too intelligent. He's almost always sat in the background while I work, and follows me just about everywhere...

This is one of my most recent projects: the pip deck 1000! A macro pad for my desktop PC inspired by the Pip-boy device from Fallout. I designed it from scratch in Autodesk Fusion and printed it out. Inside is a Pico running CircuitPython. It's on my Printables page if you're interested!
