I have just picked up the foxy, it’s really soft to the touch and you can squish it (last pic is me squishing it) very easily, the plush does look used since some seams are stretched with some places having very slight washing out from stretching from use, the tag is ever so slightly yellowed too, I did accidentally clip his ear with the scissors when opening the packet which I intend on sewing up with two stitches which is a minor fix.

If it does turn out to be fake, I’ll probably sell it on as a replica/bootleg to recoup the cost.

Also out of my budget (very unlikely to find one under £30 but it keeps my collecting tendencies in check forcing myself to start from the ground up and from a really low price) but for someone else, I think it’s a good addition, checked ratings (~900 of them) and item amount (~450) so probably legit as hell since they won’t just throw their account away for a stuffed animal.

Super cursed, Chica afaik is supposed to be a chicken although I have seen rubber duckies that are actually chickens so not surprised someone made Duckle.

It was faulty which is why I had it open, still couldn’t fix it but I got some great shots of the internal mech and the head voice coil activating, the issue is probably to do with the voice coil springs being broken as it can’t maintain a good tracking lock on the data bands.

I like the simple yellow flowers more than the large complex ones.

Here it was as a seedling a few months ago, so cute, full of energy but now, it’s ran its cycle and is slowly dying.

It is incomplete and unfinished, I was really hoping to have finished it but too many things kept breaking and not going the way I wanted, I would have certainly displayed it in my room in place of a nonfunctional whiteboard which the clear coat I added failed to work, just in case it’s not known, I’m NOT selling it here just to be clear.

The glue for the most part did its job and kept everything in place with only two heavy parts coming off, the main thing blocking up the project’s completion was me breaking the glass that was supposed to keep dust out of the display which I intended to get a plexi replacement but was impossible to find anyone selling that near us, I also kept breaking the frame pieces so that ate up a lot of filament which means I had nothing left over to use, I’m hoping the next person can fix it up and display it in their room while I get my money back for the materials so I can buy more filament since I’m desperately running out, I’m going to miss working on this project and maybe in the future, I may make a v2 with the information I learned from the first time around especially with the printer settings and a better printer to make it stronger.

Decided to grow it to see how big I could get it and with the intention of shaping it to be like Rayquaza but it was too stiff, took 2 months to mature and I believe it was due to the longer summer days forcing to bolt sooner learning how cannabis works (not going to grow it), I’m going to retry but in shade so it can’t mature as soon and see if it can reach the 6ft the mother plant was at.

1st pic was when it was in a pot of other mystery seedlings, 2nd, 3rd and 4th pics were just as it was flowering 1 month later and the last pic is today with most flowers already spent, I did enjoy the simple yellow flowers it had and will 10/10 grow one again, can’t post without a flair however the mother plant was an absolute unit, 6ft tall, shame I didn’t take any pictures since the stems were thicker than my thumb and had at least 20 flowers per stem.

HP LTO-5 FC tape drive, was trying to set up a dual tape drive setup so I can test twice the number of tapes at the same time, it was pretty dark inside of the PC so I didn’t see my blunder until I couldn’t take it out, I also managed to break the guides for the drive bays, they were extremely weak so I’m 3D printing a much stronger version since it appears they really cheaped out on them using multiple small pieces instead of one long continuous piece, I used a soup bowl, two jar lids and some layers of cardboard to prop it up in the meantime.

Eventually I’ll get a duplicator tower, strip it down, reuse the FC interconnecting plugs and short cables from the old sleds, add some stronger power supplies (idrc about the power efficiency rating as long as they are cheap) and slap in 5 LTO tape drives whenever I get that many so I can have throughput for testing 5 at once, I’ll have to add more fans too and two HBAs equaling 5 ports for each of the drives so I can use any PC regardless of how many bays it has which is what’s so great about FC is that you don’t need adapters or other silly things to make it external.

I had some other physically smaller disks in storage but I didn’t have access to them so my lil koalaling got a bit covered up

looks a bit wonky to me

I’ve made some houses for a classmate’s hamster, the back is wide open so even a large hamster will fit inside and then a cover can be put on to keep it inside for cage cleaning, most hamsters will chew a lot so not really recommended for hamsters that chew a lot but his hamster doesn’t chew often and usually only the chewing block inside her cage.

You may notice a house with a black roof, that one didn’t print out correctly due to a toolhead crash detection activating erroneously screwing over that print so I simply designed a cap to go over the unfinished part.

Don’t worry, mother bird dropped it off by us and presumably will be back, we had to leave to catch a boat

I was going to grab some as a houseplant but the next day, the engineers had removed it all and left nothing behind making me regret not saving it earlier, would have made a nice trailing houseplant out of it.

I of course released it back outside after 2 attempts flying back inside turning the lights off.

Looks like a chonky Concorde from this angle and it’s got a cute face too!

The darker photos are with two floppies, bonus picture of leaves filtering the light just right to make the eclipse visible on the wall

I love the large koala so I got another!

Probably just manufacturing variation but she’s ever so slightly different, did any of your stuffed animals look slightly different when you got a friend for it?

It’s been exposed to direct sunlight daily causing the red sun stressed leaves, I also water when the soil surface is dry, I did repot it 3 weeks after it had begun to slow down which after this point it begun to grow faster again, after I repotted it, I begun fertilizing it with fish tank water from the local aquarium shop causing yet another surge in growth, the only thing is that the mother plant that gave me the seeds was 4ft - 5ft tall before slowly collapsing as it died, the root system on that plant wasn’t much bigger than this pot so I’d assume it had survived weeding for more than 2 years (didn’t plant anything in that area for that long) and grew this large, while I do understand it’s a young plant, would it ever grow to the height of the original plant or was it genetics that was lucky?

Since it’s a monocarpic plant, will it die now after flowering or will it proceed with the 2 year cycle and die then, since I’m giving it consistent nutrients and loads of them, would it have a very small chance of surviving the 2nd year and continue to grow for the third year, some garden plants like our cucumbers/zucchinis are supposed to die after one year (even says that on the label) however instead of outright dying completely, it has died off but created parsnip like roots and survived a second year before it then finally died so if the sowthistle decides to store nutrients, could it have a small chance of surviving and growing well past the mother plant’s height?

It’s a pretty looking (with the sun stress) tester plant with most of the same features as common ragwort to test many things out before the mutated 5 year ragwort goes to seed, if anyone hasn’t seen my post many months ago about the 5 year plants, they are ragwort “bushes” that for whatever reason decided not to flower for 5 years that I can remember, they weren’t weeded or cut down so they were allowed to grow freely for those 5 years, unusually those plants never flowered since those new construction houses were built (maybe special landscaping garden plants?) and only now they decided to flower sending up stalks so tall that they have grown to the height of the second floor windows producing so many flowers that I couldn’t count them, I used the sowthistle plants to test many things out which resulted in a lot of useful growing information and I want to try to go for a Guinness world record if I can, if I can figure out why it’s decided to flower early, perhaps I could prevent it on the ragworts keeping the 5 year or longer flowering schedule as this specific sowthistle plant is the largest I could make in just under a month of growing while the ones in nature are half or even a third of its size.

I dug off to the side and the sandstone just keeps on going for at least 10 blocks, I thought it was supposed to stop after just a few blocks deep?

The sandstone stops when normal grass, dirt, stone e.t.c. starts, next to that smaller beach is a much bigger beach (around 200 x 35 blocks wide) I was digging up for sand but decided to knock out the smaller beach to stone but it just kept on going and going without an end in sight, I believe the main beach will also do this, there’s also crazy world gen with a massive cliff and floating islands and next to the beach is a mangrove forest biome at the beach, at my home base near world spawn, there’s cherry biomes everywhere too alongside a village and an outpost, seed for bedrock is 9030612927069020751.
