Sanding sanding and more sanding. One day I'll get to do the fun bit and paint, but for today, it's back to the sanding

But when the primer comes, we see all the lines we missed. Stay in sandland just a bit longer.

Also, a pox on people that make models with lines going through fingers, rope, and hair.

Getting the bits to assemble a watch build from an nh34 movement. Don't expect it to be terribly difficult, so i doubt it'll stick as a hobby. Else also looking to grab the tools for a foray into kumiko woodwork.

I've been trying dragonboat racing lately and I got to steer at last practice. There's a lot of momentum to those boats and I fell off my path a couple times but no crashes and no one fell out.

I started a new conlang. The idea is to use sounds that require minimal movement of the mouth. It's already quite weird.

Interesting concept!

Thank you for making this post, it reminded me that I didn’t knit all week, and now I’m motivated to go do that.

Saw another post mentioning geocaching, so I decided to give it a try! ...I suck at it so far, I missed a FTF near my job despite trying for 40 minutes 😅 but it's exciting

A lot of people around here seem to play with their kids, so I'm going to try to make some cute swag to hide this weekend.

I've been tending to about 120 baby jumping spiders (P. audax) that emerged from their egg sac this week
