It's back!

First off thank you all for the wait, I know it's been a while.

In this episode I put a tonne of work into getting these 3D prints to sit nicely and smooth out any imperfectsions. There were so many more setbacks than I planned for and just about every step of this process went wrong. But, this is all part of learning and I can't beat myself up too much. You learn more through your mistakes than your successes.

I'm back to my regular uploads so you can expect a new video every 2 weeks (1 week to film, 4 days to edit, 3 days off to work on other things)

Thank you all again for sticking with me. I hope you enjoy all the videos to come as we wrap up this Stagea build this year and start mixing in other projects.


Enjoy the video.

Please consider supporting me on Patreon. There's a lot of time and cost in making these videos and I would love to be able to do these full time to make even more content for you. There are heaps of special rewards and behind the scenes posts so please check it out.
