Reading The Hidden Pattern: A Patternist Philosophy of Mind by Ben Goertzel
(a very interesting book)
I'm building a 1/144th scale R/C Battleship IJN Yamato for Big Gun Battles.
I'm experimenting with some new construction techniques. In this case, hot wire foam cutting.
Here is portion of the hull, forward of frame 6, cut out of foam insulation. There will be 21 frames total.

Ella Moberg was a local policewoman working on block 23334 in sector 23223 on level 3555 but since her female alien partner was a Grub-swallower from the Cancer constellation and therefore was forced to eat 350 lbs of raw meat a day this police wage and bribes she collected was not enough, so she had to take a night-job at the local Vehicle museum as nightshift a night guard walking rounds around the big dusty spaces...
She wasn´t really all that scared of all the ghost of crashed famous aviators and silly ecto-corpses of burned-to-death Racing drivers and Ect. Ect!
Actually they bored her quite a lot... then one day the frustrated ghost managed to hotwire a walker.... The even managed to bypass systems connecting it´s water-spout-guns to the kingdom of death and Squirted poor Ella with a huge load of Ectoplasmic slime...
Poor Ella had been slimed!!!
after a night at hospital getting treatment for the state of chock, she quit her museum work and started to work nigh time for a Local criminal gang laundering Money who had been colored exploding sepia bombs at bank robberies!!! much more well payed and better for the nerves so she could provide for her partners expensive feeding habits!!!
Without the help from R2, Han tries to "Hotwire" the Blast Door. Princess Leia defends them with her Sporting Blaster.
The Bunker was part of a small playset that was released in the POTF2 line back in the 90's. I bought this one for dirt cheap from a former SW collector a few years ago. I probably could have made one myself, but it was much easier to just use this piece instead. I hit it with some leftover grey spray paint and lightly drybrushed it with different shades of grey and silver acrylic just so it wouldn't look so much like plain old plastic.
Lamella Shelving: partial mock-up of plywood material prototype and fullscale formal study in EPS foam.
Four D-Cell batteries connected to aluminium busses and a steel wire.
Works, sort-of. Like cutting cold cheese with a butter knife.
Problems:
The steel wire does not get hot enough. Should be using Nichrome.
The aluminium sucks the heat off the ends of the wire, so it's only hot in the middle.
we stayed on 9, which required an elevator shift. I used HotWire for the first time, to bid the same price for a hotel room at the Pike Street Suites, that I could have gotten from another travel site. Except I wasn't told where the place was or which hotel before I paid! A leap of faith, rewarded with a giant suite with a kitchen and six dining chair room with cheap furnishings, a defeaning jacuzzi tub, and a SF State track team in the lobby, for $170 walking distance from a ton of stuff in Seattle.
