Yo dawg, I heard you like dollhouses, so I made a dollhouse to put in your dollhouse...

It's 1:288, so if you're the size of my 1:48 figures (the size I usually work in) it's about Barbie size. Penny for scale, but it's about 18mm square. Just shy of 3/4", but I had to work in mm.

(Bragging and more pics under the cut)

Not everything is exactly to scale. I did the math, using real dimensions, but when it's that small and your hands shake like I do, things do not come out exact. Regardless, me and my tremor-y hands are pretty happy with it.

I made one many moons ago, and it was not great. It's cool to see the difference. 😳 Do not be discouraged, buds. You will get better at what you do. And this one took multiple tries, btw. So if your project does too, it's just free practice. 😊

Anyways, it's mostly cardstock and paper, paint, a little colored pencil, a bit of wire, 2 seed beads, aluminum foil for the mirror, ink, nail polish, glue, and many, many curse words. 😂

Pretty sure I've posted these before, but I'm gonna be adding these to the orange hellmarket at some point soon too! As always you can get them direct from me too which saves on all those horrid fees lol

So I made a thing...

[dysphorie]

I, completely unwilling to pay the price for a slipknot jacket i liked, decided to just create my own! Took a cheap jacket, added pockets and a zip (badly but not bad for a first attempt) and some patches and shit, and tadaaaah my own custom slipknot jacket for a fraction of the price. Still a couple more things to do but this is it as finished as i need it to be for now!

First i accidentally bondawebbed a patch i was transplanting to a towel. Thankfully that towel is only used for crafting and painting and the like

Then i put in pockets (the first one was hand sewn, the second machine sewn)

Added a zip, too close to the buttons so now both cant fasten, but i dont fasten my jackets anyway cos tits and its really just for a pop of colour. Also qdded buttons to the flaps because they weren't actual pockets and the flapping was pissing me off

Then there was an uh mishap when ironing on a patch I'd previously sewn on. Still not sure what happened there

Stay tuned for part two because you can still only upload 10 images on mobile

Nook Color turned into in-dash car stereo

As you can see from the video demo, this is not your standard issue Nook Color but one that's been hacked or "rooted" with custom firmware that opens up the tablet to run Android apps. What's interesting to note about the demo is that at one point you see Google Maps up on the screen, which has people theorizing that you could turn the Nook Color into a GPS navigation device if you could pair it via Bluetooth with a cell phone and share its GPS. But the Nook Color doesn't have Bluetooth, right?

Well, not officially, but it apparently ships with a dormant Bluetooth module that some hackers over at xda-developers.com have already found a way to activate.

This is so full of win.
