Q1: Say hi, and tell us what you’ve been doing this week. #MakersHour
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.

@MakersHour hello, I’m Vicki and this week I have mainly been knitting a scarf (and ignoring the jumpsuit I have been not sewing for the past few weeks)
@popchicken @MakersHour ooh, looks great!

@MakersHour A1 #MakersHour hallo Amy/Ropey here. This week I'm home after a month in hospital and making consists of crocheting some gifts and a thank you for the team who cared for me so fully I can't tell you. This is not going to be a quick fix recovery even though the progress in 1 month is huge (for which I'm beyond grateful and relieved). Making and creativity are going to have to be an even bigger part of my life now as my gardening work is going to be VERY limited if at all possible.
@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.

@aly

@popchicken
Oooh, chunky scarf!
It's looking very good.@MakersHour @popchicken indeed. Epic scarf
-
@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!

@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

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

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.
