Steve takes his drill and skill saw and makes Alex's guitar more awesome.

Dan made another mod on his truck!

This is a modification made at the request of ramon meneses for the group Pimp My Pixels. The original can be seen at www.flickr.com/groups/pimpmypixels/discuss/72157603806209...

Basic approach: duplicate layer, make duplicate 80% multiply, copy skin from first layer and create top layer, blur gaussian 5 px, soften to 80% opacity, and finally blur out the person in the background by selecting and gaussian blur of 50%. This requires that the face layer be brought to the top to overlay the background correctly.

No modification on this photo, shown as it was taken.

The test piece

Three carabiners clipped into swivel, probably could fit one more. On the left carabiner is a traditional Blake's Hitch tie-in on 11mm Fly. The two carabiners on the left are a "closed" split tail system tied on to 11.5mm Poison Ivy with a Knut (the friction hitch).

Here's your fully disassembled turret, at this point if you're not replacing the barrels with PETG or PVC then you can put everything back together and you're all done, if you're doing a barrel mod, read on.

I was a little sad his product markings were going to go away, but they're actually still visible after the dye job.

Macro Monday - textile textures

This is my canvas sun hat. Above is the outside hat band. Hat did not have a chin strap so I added one. Below is the underside of the front part of the brim. The tan color was not dark enough for my taste, so I took a Sharpie and added some cross-hatching. I have no compunction about modifying my gear to work better for me.

The Festival of Stuff finale was bursting with delectable making madness, this time through the theme of mini-golf. We built an 18-hole Crazy Materials Golf Course for our visitors to play, as well as filling the street outside the Institute of Making with demonstrations and making stations.

Modified to change the standatd 190mm shock for one with a 215mm length.

Dawn's faceplate is pretty much done, I finally got to try out my dad's airbrush....booy it was super hard haha. but I guess I did a pretty decent job. I shouldn't be too hard on myself, this is my first time with an airbrush or any doll customizing whatsoever.

Really can't wait to put her together now and have many photosessions from now on :) but gotta wait a little while longer (waiting for one more thing)

Modification to a photo of my dog Doug to create a Warhol-esque PopArt image for my office wall.
