A New Beginning
Here is to hoping that this week goes better then last week. I struggled to get myself out of a brain fog after dealing with some stressful (for me anyway) situations.
It all started when this elderly woman who thinks that people need to cater to her sits next to me at the bus stop. Oliver and I went to Walmart to get a few things and then come home. When the bus came to pick us up she…

We Survived the Art Fair
We Survived the Art Fair
Happy Sunday and what a difference a day makes. While the weather was nice here Duluth was a different story all together. While there was a breeze it was a bit to muggy for not only myself but Oliver as well. We walked around only once and then came home. He did great with the other dogs we saw so that was a big deal and I couldn’t be more thrilled with his performance. We did see one lady with…

I'm Back I Hope
I’m Back I Hope
Afternoon sorry I have been Missing for awhile. Life kinda got in the way, not to mention my body hasn’t been up to much of anything. The weather here is starting to cool off so I have been able to get out and do more, but that comes with a price as well.
My Client/friend fell and had broken her back and she had to go in to the hospital to get it fixed. So I spent most of the day at work…

The Billy “Light” Button
Today at the Wheelock Earl Center, I have designed and created what is called the “Billy ‘Light’ Button”. Most of you probably don’t realize this but some of the automatic door buttons around campus are not suited for Service Dogs and Guide Dogs. Some are too narrow, which makes it hard for the dogs to hit it just right, while others are just not in the most ideal spot for access at all. To at least fix the buttons that are too narrow or too high, I have decided to try an inexpensive way to make the buttons bigger. With the help of #Tinkercad, a 3-D Printer, and some plastic filament, I might have come up with a solution.
In #Tinkercad, I first designed an 8-inch by 8-inch by 1-inch thick plate with just a paw print.
After taking a day to print in the 3-D printer, I realized that it was going to be too thick and too wide. I also wanted to add a wheelchair symbol in the middle of the paw print so that those with physical impairments would know that they could use it as well. So I went back to #Tinkercad and designed an 8-inch by 5 ½ -inch by ¼ -inch thick plate with a handicap symbol inside the paw print.
Now that I have finally gotten the button to be the right size, I have decided to add some contrast to help the dogs see it better.
The following picture shows the button before I added contrast:
After I added the contrast:
Here at the Earl Center, we’re still trying to figure out a way to securely mount these onto the existing automatic buttons. Once we do, we’ll update with a demonstration video. Until next time…
