Okay, compressor's working again and pressure-limited to 50psi. 00:49:52, 2011-04-15
It's 1am. Time to shut up the workshop, make some quick chicken with the leftover chips, wash and go to sleep. Productive day. 01:00:35, 2011-04-15
I think my biggest problem is I've lived in my own head too long. Too used to imagining doing things to realise I could ACTUALLY do them. 18:11:29, 2011-04-15
Looking/lusting at milling machines on Chester UK's website.. 19:02:13, 2011-04-15
There's a particular lovely one I could maybe get in a few months but it's twice the weight of other machines. I'd have to make a new bench. 19:04:11, 2011-04-15
Nabbed a big homebrew barrel at the tip from someone before they had a chance to put it in the skip. #3secondrule 19:29:53, 2011-04-15

Those kittens are too cute for their own good. 19:52:52, 2011-04-15
I just hoovered up a wasp. I hope it can't get out again, or it's going to be pissed. 20:03:41, 2011-04-15

Cleaned the bug-zapper. The compressed air got dead bugs out of bits I couldn't reach. Only now they're all over me. 20:55:06, 2011-04-15
@JezzKitty I'd sure say so! in reply to JezzKitty 21:01:48, 2011-04-15
I bought some lamb-hearts today. I'm going to try stuffing them with dates again tomorrow. 21:07:17, 2011-04-15
@pandalion No prob! Sauté bull testicles it is! in reply to pandalion 21:49:59, 2011-04-15
@pandalion We shall see nearer the time :3 in reply to pandalion 22:05:49, 2011-04-15
@pandalion I'm thinking something chicken based atm. :3~ in reply to pandalion 22:53:24, 2011-04-15
My hand is cramping from sanding D: But I am getting very smooth results. 23:19:00, 2011-04-15

@blueyp You need to develop a mild claustrophobia. It helps keep things clear to some degree. in reply to blueyp 00:38:56, 2011-04-14
@menlovemyhairyclit I love that in making such a racist comment you also reinfo (@YouTube http://youtu.be/rt6OmDdY8jo?a) 11:32:55, 2011-04-14

Chilly! But doing some housekeeping for a few hours. 12:38:06, 2011-04-14
Also, I would like a cute bum to squeeze. :3 12:38:28, 2011-04-14
@avon_deer Nah, more like O.O Lopsided would be odd. in reply to avon_deer 12:42:46, 2011-04-14
@menlovemyhairyclit Your definition of what is white seemed to be entirely base (@YouTube http://youtu.be/rt6OmDdY8jo?a) 14:03:51, 2011-04-14
@menlovemyhairyclit Or was your first reply badly phrased? In which case, what (@YouTube http://youtu.be/rt6OmDdY8jo?a) 14:08:13, 2011-04-14
Lightly anti-trolling on YouTube before I go get some lunch. 14:09:02, 2011-04-14
@mothdust I shall endevour to post more to Twitter directly to counter this imbalance. in reply to mothdust 14:14:58, 2011-04-14
Optimus Sub-Prime. (@YouTube http://youtu.be/kYRK5lzfb9w?a) 14:25:44, 2011-04-14
3 comments is an abnormal amount. YouTube logged me out and is now asking for verification on new comments. 14:26:53, 2011-04-14
Two more orders posted off! Now to do some carving.. 18:11:39, 2011-04-14
@twinklestah I'm sorry to hear that. :( *hugs* in reply to twinklestah 18:12:07, 2011-04-14
I'm playing with my wood. #carving 18:29:06, 2011-04-14
@pandalion I love you too, and thankyou <3 :D in reply to pandalion 18:40:12, 2011-04-14
@pandalion I needed to hear that today, but it's true. <3 :3 in reply to pandalion 18:46:52, 2011-04-14
@pandalion Don't think I have anything planned :) in reply to pandalion 18:58:44, 2011-04-14
@pandalion That sounds wonderful :) If you have both free, movie night maybe? in reply to pandalion 19:26:45, 2011-04-14
Weird, this pine smells sorta like strawberries. 19:27:50, 2011-04-14
@pandalion Crashing should be fine. I have a whole spare mattress for guests. :) And yes, I'd love to cook for you! :D in reply to pandalion 19:32:00, 2011-04-14
I have resorted to whittling this horn as it is an odd swirly shape. 19:39:43, 2011-04-14
@pandalion She doesn't look old enough! in reply to pandalion 21:08:24, 2011-04-14
As I sit rapidly hand-sanding a horn in my lap, I'm suddenly glad I didn't Livestream this. 21:20:42, 2011-04-14
@twinklestah Thankyou, I choose to take that as a compliment ;) in reply to twinklestah 21:31:55, 2011-04-14
@pandalion My channel would get banned, and every channel within 10ft of it! XD in reply to pandalion 21:36:11, 2011-04-14
Need a cuppa while the (hopefully final) bits of car body filler set. Just some tiny sections need smoothing, then I'll varnish it. 21:51:04, 2011-04-14
@pandalion I want to see these too! XD in reply to pandalion 22:00:30, 2011-04-14

@Muzkip I really want to lol. X3 in reply to Muzkip 01:13:27, 2011-04-13
Just back from the hackspace. LOTS of people there. Glad I went. Tho wish I'd changed rather than running right from the workshop. 01:14:23, 2011-04-13
Some new thoughts/ideas. Also I have the hackspace espresso machine with me. Will attempt to repair. This has not yet been achieved. 01:15:13, 2011-04-13
I shall sleep very shortly tho. Up early to finish couple of orders and post. Must get manic energy at all turns. 01:15:57, 2011-04-13
For now I have hot mug of liquid beef. 01:16:09, 2011-04-13
Casting orders (excluding eyes) all caught up with! Lunch, email, and postage. Then some mould making and rewiring. 14:59:45, 2011-04-13
I'm going to have to refurbish the degass chambers soon. They're acting up and there's more improvements to be made. 15:00:31, 2011-04-13
Covered in so much blue guff it looks like I've spent the day murdering Smurfs. 16:20:52, 2011-04-13
Just seen a literal #UFO over East London. Thought it was a biplane, but seemed to be tumbling in the wind very high. More of an H-shape. 17:13:54, 2011-04-13
Drifted off higher and higher to the North-East. Lost sight of it before I could grab the binoculars. A tumbling black H. 17:15:17, 2011-04-13
Thick "wings" at each end joined by a thin central portion. Front-on looked like a biplane, but obviously not when tumbling. Weird. 17:16:15, 2011-04-13
@swaldman Not that anyone can prove. in reply to swaldman 17:19:16, 2011-04-13
@bobbyllew Well it is spring. in reply to bobbyllew 18:13:59, 2011-04-13
@MrCullen Speakers flat to the floor, volume up, and play some ultra-funky 70s porn music. in reply to MrCullen 19:13:20, 2011-04-13
I uploaded a YouTube video — KITTENS! http://youtu.be/hzY_kpCg-6M?a 19:44:39, 2011-04-13
@dresdencodak I missed the word "info" for a second there, and was about to ask what revolution followed the invention of the toilet. in reply to dresdencodak 20:10:31, 2011-04-13
I've had three meals today, and I'm in the workshop with no orders to fill (well, except the eyes). It's a weird liberating feeling. 20:11:17, 2011-04-13
Also there's floor space appearing. #madness 20:11:41, 2011-04-13
@blueyp I know, it feels so wrong, yet so right!! in reply to blueyp 20:26:50, 2011-04-13

@retallicka First person on my "who to follow" suggestions when I get home? Dave Gorman. 01:22:53, 2011-04-12
Based on the last RT I have a terrible terrible idea. 14:52:49, 2011-04-12
The UK, after-all, cannot afford to be left behind in the international fictional arms race! I propose the "Cloudbase for the UK" project! 14:55:41, 2011-04-12
Goddammit. There's a tiny under-cured section in this casting. The rest of the order's all ready to go. 15:13:43, 2011-04-12
Trimmed out the bad bits and.. oh wait, there's another bit. 15:32:23, 2011-04-12
After three days on charge the UPS batteries read ok. The UPS itself disagrees though, giving them only a 2/5 charge rating. :P 15:53:04, 2011-04-12
