Why Your BLTouch Sucks...

Why Your BLTouch Sucks...

I've recently got into 3D Printing and immediately out of the gate, I bought a CRTouch (Creality's version of the BLTouch) for my Creality Ender 3 v2. I have a lot of experience with tuning my woodworking tools, and tramming (aka bed leveling) the bed was pretty solid after I

The Chaos Continues

The Chaos Continues

This blog has been a smattering of posts about my hobbies and interests over the years. It's been chaotic at best, and unmaintained at worst. The latter led me to the dumpster fire of today and a potential to just drop this and walk away; but, I've never been good

Defining Non-Repudiation

It All Started with a Disagreement The other day I was in a workshop when the definition of non-repudiation was stated and I was left confused. It's not that I don't know the definition of non-repudiation, rather it seems National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) isn't even consistent in

Cockpit + Duo Security 2FA

Background For regular visitors you may have noticed that over the past couple weeks, things have been offline. I left my previous job and with that change, there has been some additional changes that I made. I recalled the server from the datacenter and set it up locally to act

Structuring Software Development Teams - A Response

These views are my own and do not reflect the opinion of my employer.

Let's Talk about Shiplap

Let's Talk about Shiplap

For the past several years of my woodworking hobby, I've been using shiplap joinery off and on. I like the look of it. I like how it can provide strength without edge-gluing. What I don't like about it - how complicated it can be to calculate any single variable. Well

This Meltdown is Just a Spectre...

Oh, where to start. You probably heard about Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities, and might be freaking out that the world is coming to an end. Well it's not. Even though the reports are far and varied, many state that everything is compromised by these two. That the problem is in

Spend Time Prototyping

Spend Time Prototyping

So, you have an idea for something you want to make, and you have an epic design in mind, but you have no idea how to actually execute. This was me a week ago. I had an idea for a jointer knife holder. I don't have the box for the

Router Cabinet

Creating a router cabinet seems to be every woodworkers first major journey in toolmaking. The first one is always built out of dire need, with plans to always build a newer one on the horizon. At least, this is how it went for me. Genesis I built my first router

A Simple Wine Rack

About two years ago, I helped a friend with his custom bed frame idea. It mainly consisted of a couple sheets of birch plywood with dados cut to create little cubby areas under the bed. When he had completed the project, he had some left over plywood he didn't need,

It's Been Too Long...

Way too long. I really didn't have any motivation to get back into working on my server for a long time now, but finally I was able to expend a Second Wind and get things fixed up. For years I have co-located a server out of the FDC Servers data
