catching up



Today I'm testing the Alphasmart 3000, having replaced the internal button battery, which I never did last year.  I'm also testing the cable I have as past cables have been troublesome.

I just got back from Dallas, where I took the Rocket inside my rollaboard suitcase.  I was prepared to dig it out but neither security staff asked me to.
As you can see, I have an alignment issue I didn't have before.  Too much jostling?
Today I went to an Arts event called Metal Urge, where I made myself some some Nano Rhinos which I hope will bring me luck.  Here's the photo set.

This picture is the presser for the "charm"  I made.  They didn't have a rhino punch so I had to cut one freehand with scissors.



Others doing charms

Rhino mold at far right.  The medium is sand held together with a gluelike plstic resin.  You just scrape away whatever doesn't look like a negative image of what you want to end up with.  Like stamp carving but with a third dimension.

I missed the pouring of my own, but it sure is fun to watch.


Here they all are!

If you don't filter by location the first page of results are mostly Rovers.  Eww.
Below is the page of North America results.


Before I remembered to filter for North America, I found this flyer for Olympia.
