First of all … I’m a rich old guy.

Not really “That Rich”, but …

I can buy a popsicle, any time I want … and

Get any toys I want.

So the things in my room include a set of neat toys:

Several Sterling Engines,

A Mendocino Solar Engine,

A Memory Wire spinner,

A nice drone,

My computer, internet, and maker robot (Snapmaker),

The robot does 3D printing, Laser Cutting / Etching, and Routing,

We get along really well, since we know each other better now.

All in all, I have it All…at least All that I want.

The use and control of this stuff is a challenge …

I had to learn about different file formats ,

And how to design / modify / include / … things (Thingiverse & TinkerCAD)

And much – much more. (Blender & …).

Take it easy and slow – every mistake is learning – yea, yea, yea (2 or more +’s = a -)

Next; I need to tell you that I have nothing but, time to play around …

What follows is a tribute to “open design”, geeks sharing and building upon the efforts of others …

The lower shelf contains a lot:

A globe showing the Yearly path of the Sun

A animated early version of “VisiTrig”

A Gravity Map of Sun-Planet

A Lithographic of Lovely Wife and me

The upper shelf also contains a lot:

This is dedicated to Quantum Physics & Albert Einstein

Which/Who introduced us to a micro world containing Energy and Mass …

A small (young?) bust of Albert – maybe someone you know

Schrodinger’s cat mind flip

The Upper shelf contains very little:

A Oaxacan design rabbit, peacefully eating

A hanging GPS constellation model

The next Lower shelf is a celebration of life:
