Who wants to drive to fucking ohio and see a legit band so we can get that shirt that @npcmusic posted? https://t.co/yesY4y22t1— §ρФФКՎ★TRΛSH (@SonderServo) October 18, 2016
By happenstance, I'm in Ohio, a short drive from Cleveland Heights, so I started Listening to Crying (which I love) and decided to get tickets to the show.
When I went to see Streetlight Manifesto, I made a tiny Streetlight for Toh Kay (not sure if he ever got it, I had to give it to a roadie to pass along). But how could I possibly top that?
I present to you My Hedgehog Eddie  3d. I found a great  Sonic the Hedgehog model and an awesome  Totoro model that I did unspeakable things in Meshmixer. I made some rookie mistakes the first time and sonic's  face melted off, but the second time was a charm.  The model is too big for its own good (I'm not a 3D modeler, I just play one on TV). But it printed quickly and for the small amount of time I had to get it done, I was happy with the results. Now to see if I can hand it off to Crying tonight.

So it's more than half past October and I never got around to posting this. I don't know that this counts as a real thing, it was more of an experiment, but it was fun. Please forgive my ineptitude with stepper motors, I'm much better with them now. And sorry for the pictures, I was on the road.

Just before the Northside Mini Maker Faire wa upon us, I got a call from Patrick Martin, a journalism student at Northwestern. He asked if he could come by the office to interview me and create a news piece on Trossen Robotics. Patrick is a great guy and a one-man production crew, handling the camera work, lighting, interviewing and editing.  The piece that patrick produced  ended up focusing not on Trossen, but on the maker movement as embodied by the partnership I have with my mother, a huge contributor to the work that I do.
