I've spent the week(?) since v1.0 (i'm late making this project page cause i wasn't sure i wanted too) pouring thru thingiverse to find a better enclosure openscad to start with to make it look closer.. and i already forgot why i used different files to start with but it's the same parametric box thing but someone elses remix but its more better and closer to what i saw in my head                      

and bought some more of the same terrible cheap filament i hated but in 'almond' because i figured out how to make it stick and it's weird formula makes it feel different when printed.. like i dunno how to explain it.. its less plastic-y and almost like a clay kinda feel? i dunno it's different and i like its feel enough to cope with its 'special low density formula' gimmick

BUT(t).. i don't have the energy to take pics of the two new ones i printed up and made - or post the new files everywhere - after two days of printing and assembly (i'm slow) so.. 

when i'm feeling better, i'll get my desk cleared off enough to take some fashion photos of my progress and put the new and improved files up on thingiverse and thangs.com 

and if i'm feeling squirrely, see if the timelapse movies of the print are useable enough to toss them in openshot and maybe score some horrible dark ambient industrial soundtrack type shit over them and toss those up too.

wheres harsh noise wally when you need him?
