I got almost nothing done yesterday, except for tidying and prepwork. Woke up today at 4.30 so now I've started cutting fabric for some todays sewing project (that will likely continue into tomorrow 😅). Now I'm taking a short break.

Also: I made a sale yesterday. I designed these little drawer style boxes last fall with magnets in them. Made to hold needles but also other small items. I just sold two 🙃

I need a momentary button switch (a reset button) that can solder into one of these through-hole pairs, more often used for jumper pins. I can't find any with simply through pins - such buttons always have the rounded fin connectors with an in-bored hole.

Anyone know where I can find such a button? Thanks.

🧶🧶🧶 I like to follow certain sectors to stay current on color trends, and that includes nail polish. This is the OPI'm Dreamin' Spring 2025 collection. The polishes have a subtle shimmer to them, giving them an airy feel.

Expect to see these shades in places like makeup, textiles, and yes, yarns, especially from quick turn-around indie dyers who follow such things.

Bevor ich versuche, den Shelly H&T per Software "an das Internet" anzubinden, wird er manuell in Betrieb genommen. Also eine Direktverbindung zwischen #Temperatursensor und #Smartphone.

Schauen wir mal, ob das wirklich so einfach geht, wie die #Bedienungsanleitung es verspricht.

This is a chainmail piece that I have been referring to as a crosshatch top. There may be a more correct term for this style, however I am not aware of it. It is composed of two main pieces, a choker (featured standalone in a previous post) and two chestpieces. These two parts are connected with a set of magnetic clasps. Traditional clasps are connected in-line with the magnetic clasps when greater stability is required. There are two kinds of magnetic clasp featured, as I have been prototyping stronger magnetic clasps. The large, round magnetic clasps are stronger than the earlier small angular ones. The round variety also swivels, preventing tangles in the connection. The majority of the chainmail is bright aluminum, not anodized. Small rubber rings are used around the edge of the chestpieces to create a gather. Traditional clasps are used around the back of the choker and the back of the two chestpieces. The clasp around the back provides sizing and tension options. Overall, the magnetic clasps on this piece were an experiment in ease of use for clasps, and could also be used by a burlesque dancer or similar. So far this prototype has not been successful, as the magnets are still too weak for real-world use. Further attempts could utilize electromagnets or other novel electronic clasping. The magnet enclosures are made of 3D printed PLA plastic. #chainmail #chainmaille #fashion #armor #maker #crafts #aluminum #3dprinting #aluminum

🧶🧶🧶 More on the Ivy Scarf, kerchief option, worked in Classic Elite Giselle mohair, color Cloud.

All charted, it's a surprisingly easy pattern to follow. Also offers long narrow version in two sizes.

Trying for one chart done daily. There are six, A through F. This is one of those times when it's helpful to have several WIPs going at once - I can switch back and forth.

Nach dem Einbau des #Raspberry Pi 4 in das mysteriöse #Gehäuse kommt jetzt die #Inbetriebnahme. 😁

Mit #Linux arbeite ich zwar selten, doch grundsätzlich komme ich damit klar. Wo früher noch mühsam gegoogelt oder #Manpages konsultiert wurden, frage ich heute einfach #ChatGPT. Das geht für eine Root-Cause-Analyse bestimmt 100-mal schneller. Also, womit fange ich an? 🤔
