metal_0038 :: squibs
Latest Shed-friend, a re-do of one of my earliest pieces and another chance to combine 3D printing and design (the thought / word balloon) with metal (everything else). Most of Squibs was, once upon a time, a plant stand, chainlink fence post, a wrench, and a glockenspiel frame.
metal_0037 :: barry
A flash of inspiration and a drawer of scraps of scrap yielded Barry The (Mini) Bull this morning. Have a LIDAR scan of him processing now so hopefully I can make plastic versions, a la Giuseppe.
metal_0036 :: pterry
When I started doing metalwork, I wanted to build two things: a motorcycle and a pterodactyl. Just finished the latter, former a ways off. Needed to protect our new koi in nuPond from being an avian buffet, so it was a best-of-both-worlds situation (AND a planter). Plus I got to play with drilling into rock to make his base. His total wingspan is a little over four feet, so this was my first foray into larger things. Won’t be my last. T-rex, here I come.
3D succulent home
K asked me to gin up a home for a homeless pair of succulents and lo, these little things were born.
3D-printed iPad stand
Decided to save the window by building my own iPad stand instead of defenestrating my old, barely stable one. Designed it in Tinkercad, printed it in The Shed. The window thanks me and yes, I’m beyond thrilled that I finally got to use “defenestrate” in a sentence.
