Got the bench mockup together.
Single pivot just won't work; either there's no real travel, or like this one there's too much motion in the legs and none in the butt. I have an idea for how to make a set of scissor lifts that could be made entirely modular, so I'm going to start on the design phase and see where that takes me. #Maker #BackToTheDrawingBoard

Last night, I spent most of my evening coding a cloud function to import my Fitbit activity data into Firebase. But this morning, I deleted it. 🗑️

My initial excitement faded overnight, and I realized I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with the data in the first place. 🤷😴

@davidvujic I was about to suggest a cool name for railbound programmers, which could be printed on laptop stickers. It turns out though that the Swedish name “järvägsalgoritmen” is NOT called “the railway algorithm” in English, but ”The shuntting yard algorithm”. 👎🏻#backtothedrawingboard

So if you heard someone curse really loud just now, somewhere far far in the distance - that might have been me. Having cut 75% of all the wood I figured out that I had planned this entire project with the nominal size of the wood and not the actual size. 🤦 Who came up with this idiotic system in the first place? If I buy 50x50 planks, why can't they just be 50x50?! 😿 #woodworking #backtothedrawingboard

I love how math makes things look nice. And then makes you regret your decisions.

Sometimes, when drawing your thumbnail images, it’s best to just go in another direction rather than trying to make something work that clearly ... doesn’t.
