I swear, today is the day of the telemarketer. 11:44:46, 2011-07-04
Muscles are pretty sore. Going to take a walk over and look at the old Focus store, see if there's any mention of shop equipment sales. 12:44:59, 2011-07-04
No mention of site-management at old Focus. However big roll-off skip out the back, half-full of stuff. Min 2-person safety womble, that. 13:23:41, 2011-07-04
Mum's back from Sommerset 14:22:30, 2011-07-04
@PoisonedAl It doesn't say anything about ball-games. Get a Zorb. in reply to PoisonedAl 15:02:44, 2011-07-04
I have just discovered a movie called "Exterminator City". It looks terrible. I have to see it. <3 17:23:46, 2011-07-04
I didn't know they made movies like this outside the 1980s. 17:24:10, 2011-07-04
The new Razor moulds are all trimmed and ready. After some water and an aspirin, I'll start mixing. 18:48:12, 2011-07-04
My brother's just shown me the foam Thor armour he's made to wear to Sonisphere this weekend. 19:09:17, 2011-07-04
Blast. Resin cured too fast. Gotta do a second run. 20:02:23, 2011-07-04

News of the World hacked into voicemail of murdered teen, deleted potential evidence from the full mailbox hoping to get more for the story. 21:05:53, 2011-07-04
My question: is there a punishment for these actions that can't be made to vanish by throwing money at it? Can a newspaper be forcibly shut? 21:07:12, 2011-07-04
*sigh* Couple of the moulds needed further trimming to eliminate bubbles. Also some residues suggest the resin's getting too old. 21:14:58, 2011-07-04
Okay, I'll do one more run and then call it a night. I'll sand and drill tomorrow. 21:16:47, 2011-07-04
Batch 3 is in and looking good. Time to put some food in the microwave. 21:51:55, 2011-07-04
Batch 3's come out right! Now eating chilli con carne (tinned). 22:09:32, 2011-07-04
@tajasel @bluealchemist This made me laugh more than I really should have. XD <3 in reply to tajasel 22:11:36, 2011-07-04
#NoteToSelf: Order more vinyl gloves 22:29:32, 2011-07-04

@Lizardbeth @Dragoneer Real fans of anthropomorphics are ones ready to kill for it! in reply to Lizardbeth 16:01:39, 2011-07-01
@Lizardbeth Just keep away from the ones running into crowds screaming "Admiral Akbar!". No wait, that's Real Star Wars fans. in reply to Lizardbeth 16:07:07, 2011-07-01
Looks like the new Razor master moulds came out nicely. Quick bit of ebay feedback, then making more 2nd gen masters. 16:42:58, 2011-07-01
Gotta remember to change my email address for the Dorkbot, Doctorow and UK Poly mailing lists.. 16:47:04, 2011-07-01

The children next door are in the garden screaming "Lesbian!" back and forth at each other. 17:35:03, 2011-07-01
@avon_deer Afraid it looks like that offer's over now. Best they do now is loose condoms for 25p/ea. http://t.co/t0klsaP in reply to avon_deer 17:40:03, 2011-07-01
I still giggle that I preserve my resins with a "gas blanket". 18:13:26, 2011-07-01
@ThrashWolf Send me one? sci@sci-fi-fox.com in reply to ThrashWolf 18:13:59, 2011-07-01
@ThrashWolf It's because I'm too random for you. o_o in reply to ThrashWolf 18:25:16, 2011-07-01
@ThrashWolf I see nothing in my inbox, so guessing mine didn't make it. :/ in reply to ThrashWolf 18:33:00, 2011-07-01
@ThrashWolf That sounds ominous. D: in reply to ThrashWolf 18:53:54, 2011-07-01
While resins set, am looking up polar fleece. Wikipedia says thickest is "300 grade". Not finding it listed as that anywhere else though. :P 18:54:46, 2011-07-01
6 2nd gen master done. 6 to go. then some mould-making. Might be done before midnight! 21:26:59, 2011-07-01
Storage cabinet's hole has been plugged with high density PU foamboard & silicone sealant. Shed now smells of vinegar. 22:06:57, 2011-07-01
Okay, last batch of 2nd gen masters is curing. Also wired a switch to the storage cabinet but the lamp's on the wrong circuit. 23:19:02, 2011-07-01
Congrats Sci, you've managed to rig it so the light comes on when the thing's turned OFF. 23:28:56, 2011-07-01
FFS. Got the lamp working. Was thinking backwards. Duh. 23:43:44, 2011-07-01

@Utlah I recently found a damaged underwater camera bag. The aluminium camera fittings could be converted to one of them. in reply to Utlah 15:27:23, 2011-06-30
Getting an intermittent IP address conflict on this machine. Very frustrating. All the home network machines SHOULD be DCHP enabled. 16:06:44, 2011-06-30
@grahamguy No, just a Windows XP PC. The modem went bang this morning tho, & replacement's acting up. in reply to grahamguy 16:58:28, 2011-06-30
Three PCs are on the network, all are set to DHCP, and I'm still getting kicked off due to an "IP conflict". 17:45:37, 2011-06-30

Kansas shuts ALL abortion clinics; now imagining Wizard of Oz as a post-traumatic fantasy of a raped girl trying to get across state lines. 22:43:38, 2011-06-30
@twinklestah Only question is who raped her. The witch was female, the Wizard is who she's going toward, uncles are good guys.. in reply to twinklestah 22:53:24, 2011-06-30
@twinklestah Suppose it wouldn't have to be mentioned who though. An uncle would be potent, but hard to use lion/scare/tin in it then. in reply to twinklestah 22:54:41, 2011-06-30
@twinklestah XD At least it wasn't Toto. in reply to twinklestah 22:55:43, 2011-06-30
@twinklestah Maybe her father? Her parents are never shown in the legit movie. Maybe she's blocking them out for a reason. in reply to twinklestah 22:56:59, 2011-06-30
@twinklestah *chuckle* But seriously, you're right, this could actually be a decent little movie, done right. :3 in reply to twinklestah 23:11:56, 2011-06-30
