Fully Printed Sword of Omens ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01827

This is the Sword of Omens fully printed and I even found craft dowels to add to it to strengthen it. I still have a lot of work to do to actually assemble it. I do have to reprint part of the handle because the first time I printed it the bottom curled up and peeled away from the hotbed. I ended up adding some supports to it so that it would print flat. I also will have to do a lot of sanding and also add some filler to it before it can be printed. I also noticed that one piece does not quite fit into another and I’ll need to sand that down as well. I’ll also have to sand the larger dowel down in order for it to fit through one smaller part of the handle. Once I have it all assembled I’ll see if the Prestons’ daughter Cady would like to paint it.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
