@MakersHour Hi, Maaike here. I have knitted a sock! (Well, the last bit of a sock, I started it in January). Also some other things, but those are more boring.
#MakersHour@Stratski
So the next sock done by end of July?

@wokstation @suearcher @MakersHour that isn't fun

@MakersHour thanks! the big day is tomorrow, and the to do list is finally getting shorter
-
@suearcher @MakersHour I keep looking at our rhubarb and contemplating doing something with it - upside down cake sounds delicious!
It's dead simple -I just put chopped up stalks in the bottom of the cake tin, sprinkled with sugar (and ground ginger if you like) and then pour a plain sponge batter over it and bake.
I call it upside down cake, but you can serve and eat it whichever way up you like!

A1 goedeavond! not much this week. Did some work replumbing the makerspace waste water system at the weekend. As well as some 3d printing. Diary is too full right now.

@Indigoatcrafts
Awww, that is such a lovely thing to do for the staff team.I hope the recovery continues smoothly, and you are not out of action for too long.
@MakersHour I had to pop in for paperwork today and I haven't got close to finishing stuff so they just got a stack of thank you biscuits

@MakersHour A1 (Hello): Hi, I'm kbob. I'm finally getting back into the groove this week. I fixed my printer. I've printed a few things, and I've resumed work on the bubble universe with color themes.

@wokstation @MakersHour the discharge day was scary but yes getting out has been good. I'm doing better than I thought. Only 1 bad fall

Excellent.
That is gaining a leg and an arm back into use.
I hope it continues to improve. -

@kbob
I have completely failed to fix my printer, but it is a HP Pro 8200, that stopped working when I put in fresh ink! Nothing will work now. -

Yes, it is a bloody pain.
It was working fine up until it needed ink. It recognised the ink as genuine and then reported a problem and wanted me to phone HP.
Repair Cafe couldn't fix it, and YouTube hints videos didn't make any difference either.I will need to get another printer, I think.

Aethon. Outside of making I look after the house, carer and a fair bit of rural work. Making wise, not a lot as I damaged my shoulder putting up some fencing. I made some leather sheaths for the local shearers.
