Invisible College PhD?i

Invisible College PhD?i

I’m one of those people who almost always has to have two copies of a sticker before using it, because what if I make the wrong decision? 😂

But I got this with my AO2[.]io order yesterday and knew I had to use it immediately. I start my PhD on Monday and will be using my SuperNote every day, so I figured what better way to take the spirit of the IC with me.

New DIYs and some new cordage?

Picked up some cool Ti barrel beads and made a couple new Begleri. Also trying out some different silk cordage. Not sure I’m sold on it just yet, but it looks kinda neat.

Trying out a new type of exotic

Well, new to me. These Damascus steel beads are pretty sweet, if a bit heavy. Strung of course on my favorite AO2 silks.

Ebony Pozvonocta Rework

Decided to clean up my Pozvonocta chętki to make it a bit cleaner and lighter. The lil boss at the bottom made it off-balance so I stole a Kraken Lite from my begleri collection and added it. Looks much cleaner and is much smoother to sling around. Now I need to see what other MKUltras I want to cannibalize and make pozvonok chętki with.

New Chetki

It’s new chętki week. I made a couple and got in some new ones.

First ever pozvonocta chętki?

Had a brief stroke of genius and made one of my MKOctas into a Pozvonocta. I’m sure Matt or someone may have one, but this is the first one I’ve seen. What do you guys think?

Love me some exotics

Aroundsquare has really done me in. I’m starting to look for Mokuti/Zircuti all over the place. AO2’s quality is obviously better, but when they’re sold out, I’ll takes what I can gets.

Full AO2 Spread

Decided to lay out (almost) everything I’ve picked up from Aroundsquare since my first order in March. This also includes every unique bag and box.

My hobbies are srs bsns.

Bonus: there is a single item that is NOT from AO2 in these pics. If you see it, you get bonus internet points along with the realization that you are probably too detail-oriented. 😂

First of its kind? - MKOctas Long-form

I don’t have any long-form MKUltras so when I got an extra ebony MKOctas in my luck sack, I decided to see what the long-form version would look and feel like. I’d say it’s not half-bad, looks pretty slick in fact. Now to see how they play.

First Time Luck Sack

I only recently got into the hobby so this was my first luck sack. It’s freaking awesome!! I’ve been looking for some Ti Hydras and to get my favorite finish (Sunset) is fantastic! The copper skeletonized Remeshok is hella cool, too. I love how a lot of it is stuff that’s been out of stock, which makes it even better.

I was almost* *disappointed when I pulled out the Ebony MkOktas since I just bought one a couple weeks ago. 😂 But then I realized: I just need to get some of the green Kevlar when they do this month’s drop and I can have the world’s first MkOktas in long form!

Huge shout out to Matt and the AO2 team - you guys are the best!

ETA - This was at the $200 level, just so people don't think this was on a $20 or $50 pull and get cranky.

Cord length on long form MKUltras?

Does anyone know the cord length for the long form MKUltras? Pic for example and attention.

Customized a chętki

Bought some black swirl acrylic accent packs so I could make my own. I like it.

Saturday Slings

I have 60+ sets and I keep coming back to these as my EDC. I love the mokuti Lil Bosses.

Changed Up My MKUltras a Bit

Decided to do some mix and match with my MKUltras. I dig the Chef Form for the Milos, but don’t have a long enough cord yet to fully realize it, so I did a bit of in between. What do you guys think?

Sunday Slings

Picked up these KroKages during the AO2 June drop and was on the fence about them until I strung them up and started slinging them. They feel fantastic and play really well. They’re like a slightly larger version of the Grays, but I think handle much better. Really fun to play with for long periods.

Fidget Friday!!

Got my latest bundle from AO2’s June drop. Still waiting on a few more things from the .io team but thought I’d share.
