      While I doubt you are going to be reading this, kydex also works great for creating “holsters” for other tools, such as pliers for linemen and other people who need odd shaped tools kept on their person. I bet Adam knows a tool or two he would love to keep on his belt around the shop, if so, he should make a kydex “holster” for it or them.

      Could be done with a mechanical clock, with a programmable driver - set it to match whatever you think the time lapse rate will be.

      Yeah, I'm sure he noticed as well, but for the intended purpose of creating an eye lid where that would be on the inside and being that it would be a non issue, it's just wasting time for no reason to address it. Also life and organics are always asymmetric. So yeah, for the job it's needed for, its pointless to waste going through the extra effort in my opinion. :)

    Hey Adam,
    maybe this might be helpful for you in the future who knows, but since i work a lot with 3d printing and thermoforming, there is much easier ways to achieve your results. For example you could transform your 3d printed part into plaster either by printing the mould or by making the mould out of alginate.
    Thermoforming and cutting plaster is way easier.
    Alternatively you could use a resin printer since the material isnt thermoplastic its also great to work with.

    You know, Adam, you can sometimes get better adaptation with that dental thermoformer if you make a paper mask to block off all but the 1-2mm of holes right around the item to be formed over. It thus directs the vacuum air to just the area right around the item to be molded.

    1:34 I know that as "Reagents" when playing World of Warcraft, when leveling up a profession (mostly Engineering and Mining).
    Although, with engineering i think they were just called "Parts", now that i think of it, but my point was, i never saw the word "fixtures" when talking about ingredients that were made solely to be used up into making the end product.

    Consider 3D printing your fixtures, collets, & holders. ABS or PETG make perfect custom soft jaws and 3D printing the final form and using it a a zero reference for your DRO’S will radically speed up the making process. You can also stamp thin aluminum and copper using 3D plastic prints and it’s a very inexpensive way to make “tooled” parts in small quantity’s.

    Adam, do be careful when parting things off on the lathe. You used your hex key to catch the first piece and then caught the rest by hand, which you should never do. I hope you didn't have your finger inside the bore. The 'slag' piece the was left after the first part luckily wasn't there for the others. That could easily wrap around your finger if it doesn't come off with the ring, which sometimes they don't.

    I'm always amazed at the precision you accomplish with such bouncy floors... Would it be worthwhile (or even possible) to access your floor structure from underneath and double up the joists or add support piers under some of the heavier equipment and/or workbench? Is a very beautiful but old structure I imagine...

    One super important lesson in making anything. Avoiding wastage is important. Sure, you can recycle material, but it's better to not waste it in the first place. For example, you can take iron and steel waste and send it to a steel mill to be recycled. But melting down that metal, cleaning it, alloying it, casting it, and rolling or processing it back into usable material uses almost as much energy as turning raw materials into steel in the first place.
    Recycling is better, but not by as much as you might think. I worked in a steel mill, and all we processed was used steel. And you don't even want to know how much money we spent on energy. Energy was the majority cost of recycling, not the materials.
    So wasting less is better than recycling, by several magnitudes of order. So free cycle, reuse, or use less. That's the answer.

    As a maker, how much of what you do with the different jigs and techniques is from having observed it or do you just come up with some of these on the fly? It's fascinating to watch.
