I want one of these attention receipt printers! There are so many other things that could be documented with something like this.
Maybe it’s time to repurpose the old printer from the Wall Mounted User Recyclable News Dispenser.

A favorite around here are these Smoked Gochujang Ribs. That low-and-slow recipe calls for over 6 hours in the smoker, which requires some advanced planning. Since last year, we’ve had good luck with a faster recipe Brian turned me on to, I think it’s how they roll in Alabama. It calls for a slightly higher heat and can be on the table in a couple hours. The results? Almost as good as the low-and-slow method.
I’m writing this down here so I don’t have to go digging into my message history next time I cook them:
Fleet week means Memorial Day Weekend and the (unofficial) start of summer! I saw the Parade of Boats on Wednesday from the office. I had to squat at a different desk for a while since I lost my Hudson River view in a recent move.
The 3D printed boat part sample I mentioned last week came back from the printer. I was happy with the strength and print quality. It also fit properly on the boat–so all good. I made a few tweaks to the rest of the model and sent it out to print. Fingers crossed, it all fits together nicely.
We took Uno out for a sail on Saturday, finally. It’s a late start this year compared to previous seasons. I blame the weather, mostly. It’s been a cool and rainy spring. Even this sail was on the chilly side. I’ll try to make up for it in the coming weeks though.
Yes, only one link this week, but it’s a really good one.
Last Sunday, I spent the rainy day designing a part for the boat. On a friend’s recommendation, I used Autodesk Fusion. I was surprised that that there’s a version of Fusion available free for personal use. I was also surprised that it was relatively easy to get started–even for someone whose last 3D design experience was decades ago and involved pencils and drafting tools. I sent part of the part out for printing to check a couple things before getting the large parts printed. I’ll post more details after those parts arrive. I suspect there might be some design tweaks needed.
The posts here have been skewing toward sourdough bakery lately, a lot. The last loaf I made might have been one of the best though. I’ll try to broaden the scope of my posts a bit in the future…
In other news, we checked out a few of the groups performing at the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music’s Open Stages. This is a really special neighborhood event worth marking the calendar for (next year).
