I just got fork truck certification at work.

I'm officially one of the chosen elite that has been entrusted by the powers that be to operate a very expensive and very dangerous fork truck at work.

I was actually bothing by supervisors about it for a while. I work the night shift at a very high tech CNC shop and no one else is certified on this shift. We dont need it often but sometimes heavy shit has got to move and we either do it by hand cart (boring), bother someone else on the other side of the shop (they dont like that very much) or leave it for the day guys. I'm one of the newer guys so not everyone is thrilled I got the bump and they didn't but I made it happen. Nobody asked me to do it, I went after it. Anyways, yeah. Me + fork truck = frendz4eva

In shower today: "I bet my YouTube account is older than most of the people on YouTube." ...Yes, yes it is.

Where the hell did all that time go?

Fun Fact: I was the very first person who discovered a back masked subliminal message on Tool's "10,000 Days" album and my video got sum 100k views which was insane for that time in youtube history. Whenever Tool finally released their discography on streaming platforms, I got a copyright strike and it was taken down. fuckers.

My latest piece in progress.

I'm not usually one to share my art but I've been really wanting to branch out and share it with others because I'm about to make a big step forward in life. This is my latest piece. I designed all the models in Blender and made all the tool-pathing for my CNC machine in this wonderful program called VCarve Pro. Also, shout out to Krita for being the best magic bullet to get ideas from my brain to a format that I can start editing. Basically takes 1 500 x 500 MDF for the 14mm thick base x x2 500 x 500 sheets of Lauan plywood for the reflectors, boarder and the words which lovingly and accurately describes what JWST truly is deep down, a straight-up science gangster. The black lettering and hexagon lines I did by cutting text pockets in the wood then filling them with an epoxy + enamel paint mix. And after a good sanding and oil coating, this is where I'm at. Still trying to develop a way of mounting the piece to the wall as well as a better way of getting the text on the JWST model itself.

Also, you can't really see it from this angle, all the reflectors are facing inward towards a single point. Eventually I'll make the OTE (The black thing in the middle where nothing sits as of now)

I'm still working out the kinks but I plan on making the next one even better... which is currently being made right next to me.
