@noelle I assume it's standard equipment on Stormtrooper utility belts. They seem like the sort to be overprepared.

3d printer babbling 

A new steel-plated nozzle and a little feedpath messing-around later, et voila: The Folly is now tooled up for production with abrasive filaments, like carbon fiber PLA, on a regular basis. Between support pieces for the experimental model of printer to follow ( "Fates" ) and skeletal pieces to hang Tin Dog's infrastructure off of, I suspect it'll be generating carbon-fibre PLA for some time to come. Plus, I really like the look and feel of the stuff - a pleasing texture.

@anthracite Just got my copy today via Kindle in Canada. Haven't even looked yet - been a day - but vicariously cheering you on. n.n

@Oneironott ... Wait. You imported coyotes to Seattle?! YOU'RE A WALKING DREAMTIME SPOUT. O.O

@MicroSFF It is not, perhaps, the tale I expected. And yet, it is beautiful.

@Oneironott @neonNeptunian @emanate @indi
A 'Carful' of Neptuneans... Mmm, no.
A Flock of Neptuneans?
A Fathom?
A Depth?
A Dream?
A Nocturne?
A Sonambulation?

Hey, @Juliesqveakaroo. Nearest pub to my home? S'called "The Pump."

*waggles eyebrows*

@Fuego He's still gorgeous. n.n Borzoi? He looks like he's got some sighthound lineage. Shave him and you could fake a greyhound. XD

@001zlnv The latter would be most sensical, but the problem's really just a broken wire - so I'm going to repair the break with a jumper or two and reinstall the original part. I try to reuse the original equipment as much as possible. It's like Herbie the Love Bug, the magic's in the steel. n.n

The laser (1800W suborbital doom-beam) at work, has another laser (dinky little 5V LED chip laser with a diffraction grate cross lens) bolted to it, to show what the doom beam emitter is pointed at. See, the 'bore through you faster than you can blink' laser isn't visible-light spectrum, so it comes with a keychain laser to show what's gonna get lased.

And *that* laser is frotzed.

It needs a seeing-eye laser so we can lase with the laser you can't see.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
