While he's playing, I see Tesla sales (and their share price) have started to tank. Not this tank. This tank's a Wankpanzer. I wonder how many times that phrase must be said to enter the lexicon?

Tonight's subject. I've finished making a new fibre optic brush... tools which will be used include that brush, the Antsonamelon RGB Critter colour changing torch, their DIY adapter, a Magilight, two UV torches on light stands, a fixed RGB panel light... let the light painting begin.
