I’ve been busy designed stuff to 3D printer print and now I’m going to scoff my lunch and head into the workshop to build something I need quite desperately.

This evening I finally defeated my white whale, my nemesis, my arch-enemy - my brother’s right ear. This was my third attempt. On previous occasions I’ve removed big chunks but never been able to clear it. Today, I did so in style. (I have permission to share).
