Good point. I knew they rolled it into SU for Schools, but I hadn’t noticed it missing from iPad.
I don’t follow. I use a pen tablet even when on desktop - no mouse. Why would a mouse be needed?
I guess I am just not good with the computer version of the controls.
Short venture into 3D printed solutions to unique problems.
My older son is a 7 year old, non -verbal (as in his brain cannot comprehend language as communication) with some OCD , and over the years it has been jarring when you’re asleep and suddenly the ceiling light starts flashing. So I printed a special light plate for my bedroom, and his younger brother’s bedroom that you need adult sized fingers to operate.
Then I need twelve “iron” posts with circle tops for a rope fence post. It is for a photo recreation of a video game scene, and in no way has to be functional. So I chopped some 1” PVC and am printing topper inserts. I will then spray paint them. I’ll post the photo when I’m done with it.
It took me three tries to get the scaling right.
First I accidentally scaled the insert to be the same size of the pipe, then I shorted it 1/16 of an inch to make sure it went in and it was too small…. And then I accidently printed the same file again instead of the newest file and then … viola.
Nice, what printer did you get? I recommend 3D printing to anyone who can design. Its kinda mind-blowing where it’s going.
I have an old Longer LK4 . Had it for years, terrible layer lines, and takes forever but gets the job done.
Why not upgrade?
It’s a hobby/luxury item. I don’t need more than this at the moment, no matter how fun something more powerful might seem
Way cool as usual. How do you get that hot spot of lighting in the second image?
A combination of several programs, and then just painting over it In procreate. There’s quite a bit of paint over here and there.
As if getting to curl up on the sofa and work in SketchUp one handed while watching tv and drinking a milkshake wasn’t enough to demonstrate my laziness level… Here’s a current screenshot where (once again) I couldn’t be bothered to switch programs to write notes on the model and just started in with the freehand tool. You can see it also in the above post when I wrote “'not an exit” on the door.
It’s tough to determine exactly when we don’t know if this is happening in pajamas after noontime. The sets look pretty dang good so the laziness factor seems a tad lower than you’re suggesting.
Stage on a stage?
Yep. The main character is in jail on the outside retelling how he murdered all the people he did before getting sent to jail (it’s a comedy believe it or not). When he steps up into the stage area he’s in the retelling, and when he’s outside he’s narrating. The frame is called a proscenium… And we actually have a proscenium here at Lakewood, so now we have a proscenium in a proscenium.
We’ve been calling the the “fake proscenium” which is ridiculous, because it’s not fake at all.
yeah, I can believe it.
