Snow, Rack, Chiro, 3DP, Windmill, HSW, Snow, Backroads, Kraken - Tuesday

What a joke of a winter this is. Yesterday morning woke to the slight bit of snow coating the farm which was maybe a quarter to half an inch. This was the little bit of system floating around the region. All to the south of us got hit WAY harder than we did on the farm.

As the back of the cell moved off we got a couple batches of huge flakes falling for a minute or two then gone to the east.

Keeping the printer going all day I got the first parts going which is another stand for the dumb bell weights. This is about the biggest I can make it on the plate.

Sweet, sweeeeeeet relief. The adjustment and traction do wonders for my stupid back. He told me the one stretch I should do which is on stomach push up on arms to arch back. I was already lying on my back with the foam roller under me so I was ahead of the game a bit. The rest of the day I did not have the shooting seizing pain hit when standing.

Last part of the stand finished and I got the parts for the windmill reprinted.

I didn't want supports so had to run on the separate plate.

The rods are much stronger now and after a good bit of trimming and shaving of the plastic I got the thing put together and spinning freely in front of the fan.

Starbond glue is badass! it dries incredibly fast and has a super strong hold. The thin version is super thin and rather easy to use too much. I'll be getting the medium thickness soon to have the flexibility to use either.

The box for the EMF meter needed the hinge pin which I was able to use a length of filament for.

Using up filament I pushed out a few HSW panels. I'm making a good stockpile of these as they have uses EVERYWHERE, and I will also be printing out a bunch of hooks, boxes. shelves, etc soto try and get more organized.

Had to take J to town to meet @stryeyz for their last volleyball evening and then bolted back to the farm and right away called in our pizza order. Half an hour later we headed up the road and picked it up.

The Kraken played and it was a rather shitty game for much of it as they ended up behind most the game.

The storm was mostly to the south of us and we got a minor bit of snow in the evening.

Wright was their best player and was the one to keep them somewhat in the game.

It wasn't looking great going into the 3rd period so I went out to soak.

Came inside to see them way behind.

But they managed to comeback to force OT and then a shoot out which they ended up losing.

Today I'm still super sore but so far no shooting seizing pain, just pain, which is a step in the right direction. I'll get the printer going soon, get the boys to school, do lots of rolling and stretching, need to shim the print bed for leveling, then have dinner ready early as R has practice this evening.

We have enough snow here that I should finally get to test out my show shoes. My niece was fascinated with my trekking poles when I was looking things over, and I collapsed then down to their most compact length so she could pretend to hike. It was hilarious seeing her looking almost to scale with the short version.
