When “difference” turns “normal”, there is always room for individual choices and deviations.
I took this picture in the Lecturers’ common room at the Department of Public Relations & Communication in Cephalonia, Greece, where I teach. Yorgos Georgas (23 yeas old), a student of mine, comes from a family where tattooing and piercing is the norm rather than a deviation. His 3 uncles were pioneers of the body modification movement in Greece and he never had anybody criticize or oppose his choices. Having reached adulthood at 21 and determined to give his mark with a sui generis procedure Yorgos also considered scarification, but finally opted for the procedure of branding that involves burning with a branding iron. Having decided on the method he was less sure about the message he wanted to brand, so he opted for “Bagy”, his nickname since middle school.

looking at the inside of the end cap and the main electrode. The new locating groove, made to center the housing, is visible. Also visible (sorta, sorry about the depth of field failure, I wasn't paying attention) is the gas vent which communicates to a hole in another view.I have some small concern here that the main electrode will not sufficiently "shield" the sharp edges of that hole, preserving a smooth and symmetrical field shape between end cap and main electrode. I think it will be okay. I very much hope so.
Use magnet to keep chuck key.
This works well, because receive just enough entertainment from the magnet that I never forget to remove the chuck key from the chuck.
These magnets were taken out of an abandoned hard drive which, like most things i deal with, was found on the streets for free.

I have really big eyes and some days they look bigger than others LOL. Did a lot of writing today, and also tamed my eyebrows a bit. They are still uneven; I like to keep my look a little untamed. It is amazing to me how a slight eyebrow modification can really set my eyes off.
After removing Plo's head, I wanted to see if a standard, unmodified minifigure head would work with the body. Obviously, it works just fine.
The only drawback is you can't swap out the legs as they're still glued to the torso. But that's really not a big deal.
And, yes, Plo's head fits just fine on any other figure's body. You just have to deal with the small hole left by the screw...but it's not really that noticeable.
I split the B&M paired cable which comes stock with the light to ground the light internally to the back of the mounting bolt. The power wire will pass through the new hole in the back of the light.
I am not 100% confident that the solder wants to adhere to this alloy bolt and could potentially come loose. It feels pretty strong for now but only time will tell. I may consider covering the solder/wire with a strong adhesive to just to help the wiring from wanting to move.
I was looking for my cardboard cover to convert the lightsphere to a darksphere, couldn't find it anywhere. Saw this standard reflector lying around and tried it on the lightsphere. It fits perfectly! It gave me the snooted effect i was looking for. I might use it more often in the future :)
Some older AI images modified with new Photoshop beta. Borders were expanded and then auto filled by Photoshop. A whole new world.
I want to mount my Rockler router table between the rails of my tablesaw fence. It's too wide, some some modification is in order.
