quote [ In this video we're back to one of my favorite projects that I started playing with more than 10 years ago: making giant bubbles. After experimenting with many of my own mixtures, I've found the best consistency in results comes from a variation of a recipe found on the Soap Bubble Wiki, "Mike's Gooey Mix". That is the baseline mixture used for the tests in this video. ]
Welp, now I gotta make some giant bubbles.

quote [ What follows is a list of forums that range from at least interesting to good. I will attempt to contextualize the ones I know well. This post is by no means supposed to be complete and will be updated whenever I find more good forums. ]
This one has 166 bookmarks on Pinboard 12 days after it's publication already: like DMOZ in a nutshell.

quote [ We tried this once and the trick (for us) to get more even propane distribution was to split the supply line with a T and feed the spiral coil from both ends. That seemed to keep the pressure more even and gave a better distributed flame. ]

quote [ In this video we build a machine to make fabric from PLA that has been specially modified for high reflectivity. Because of PLA's strong emissivity in the infrared sky cooling window it is potentially a very good option for radiative sky cooling. ]

quote [ OpenRespirator is the OpenAeros effort to clear the manufacturing hurdles holding back the development of more innovative and universal mask solutions across the industry. Weâ??re excited to walk you through our innovative Digital-to-Silicone (D2S) and filter-pleating and -potting production techniques!
Have you ever wondered why there are so few options for comfortable, adaptable, reusable respirators? You might be surprised to learn that itâ??s not really a demand issue. Lots of us are still masking and weâ??re hungry for better solutions. The issue actually lies with some major production hurdles: itâ??s really slow and really expensive to use traditional manufacturing methods to prototype functional masks. But! Weâ??ve been working hard to change the game and weâ??re excited to fill you in. ] If you're into 3d printing or diy this is pretty fascinating stuff.

Hi all. I don't know who's still around from "back in the day", but I resurrected this silly program to tell you about a not-so-silly tragedy that has befallen one of the old Sensible Erection members.
