Edit: Taking an art hiatus to focus on studies.

Thank you!

That’s alright. :vivihappy: I’m doing good. How about you?

That’s awesome! It’s good to feel organized even if you’re not starting school yet. Like, there’s only one day sometimes in the week to clean and organize, usually a Sunday. And after it’s done, it’s like starting fresh in the beginning of the week.

I hope they don’t track in too much of a mess for you. I think sometimes it depends on what the weather is like during the week. If I see more dirt spots on the floor from rain, I’ll usually start with the sweeping and mopping parts. Then move in kind of a circle around the house. But, my other main focus would be my workspace and equipment. I got into 3D printing a couple months ago, so I have to do maintenance after let’s say a week of printing, making sure everything looks okay and works well. It’s actually not a bad hobby either. It got me back into being organized.

That must have felt like a long while. Having any thing done on a home can be stressful. I hope you'll be able to get some stuff done. I had to think about it for a moment. I initially thought I got it back in March, but it was actually January when I looked back in my album on my phone. I took a gamble and got one since a lot of people were getting them at the time. I've been wanting one for years, but the market wasn't that big and most "home 3d printers" were still in the infancy stages of all the technical difficulties. The manufacturing companies though are super awesome and they listen to their customers. So it's improved a lot in just the span of a few years.

Dang, that sucks. Hopefully they finish soon for you. Yeah, at least now they're a bit more affordable than they were 5 years ago. And since the market basically had a boom the past 2 years, it stabilized the prices. The ones that use resin are still a bit expensive, but it also depends on what you want to use it for. You can always make your value back from it. Other than that, the ones that use the plastic spools are generally digestible in price. The spools aren't that expensive either. Those also give back good value too.

That's awesome! A level place is always good. Dang, that must have not felt good with it leaning. Like swaying boat vibes. Hopefully you'll have a cozy winter now though. So far, I've only made small things with it. Like small tools and some small versions of models that I've made. Even though it's the biggest in the Creality CR-10 series. And a few cosplay props for some folks that I know. I do want to start making figurines . It's one of the main reasons that I got it. Some dolls too. The parts are insanely strong too for plastic. I had a prop that felt like a spaceship part after it was done printing. Some of it was the time it took as well. It was about 16 hours total. I haven't gone over 2 days of printing at one time yet. I'll do it at one point.

It is. There's a ton of builder forums. And the communities in general are like the nicest people. I haven't been active in any yet, but maybe down the road. If you want to start in a place in general, it would be those groups. I was nervous printing at first, but since everyone already posted stuff on how to do things, it wasn't so bad. It's awesome how far the internet has grown. I feel kinda old saying it.

That is very true. The only way to get to it is to just do it.
