I'm still only half way through the second one!

I usually listen to them while commuting, but I've been on holiday the last couple of weeks.

This will give me something good to listen to on the train when I go back to work in a couple of days.

Thanks guys! :)

It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Someone mentioned wood PLA. There was an artist a while back (might have been 5+ years ago) that made bone PLA with bone dust and printed skewed 3D skulls that had bone texture. It was pretty crazy.

Edit: A lot of talk about product design (hey, something I majored in!), way fun to listen to. If anyone wants to learn more about manufacturing, I have a great book called 'Manufacturing Processes for Design Professionals' written by Rob Thompson which describes all the things talked about in this podcast. Well, except 3D printing. Bending, extruding, vacuum, pressure casting etc. would recommend! It also has suggestions on the use for certain techniques, prototyping, small runs and major runs based on tooling costs. Ah, sorry for the wall of text, I love this stuff.

When he came by my house, it was an IBM fanboy's wet dream. Boltmodded M, model F, beamspring, a kishsaver, it was magical. His vintage mechs and my modern mechs together was quite an experience.

The Skeldon Phantom was baller, too.

The guy is awesome. You know someone's got a great collection when one of the keyboard he owns uses "just stock MX blacks" and it sounds boring to someone who loves MX blacks.

This puts a smile on my face.

Love when people genuinely have passion for things, this shows in how he talked on this podcast. :thumb:

Yeah, this, plus I felt that he explained everything very clearly.  A shame it ended so suddenly.
