photekq, i was incredibly impressed with the hoffmeister's prototype brass cap made from your design. very cool.

the_beast and i were talking later about indexing all the machines we have access to in the states in terms of how operators deal with time, quoting, charges, quantity, etc. and just raw talent (well, we were talking about a couple specific ones, but we ended up kind of wandering around all of the machines we have access to..) not sure how much you paid to mill that piece, but your machinist is clearly pretty talented. and your design is solid (literally, lol, that thing weighs a ton hah)

Well thank you. I think hoffmans design turned out nicer than any of the others I've had done. I believe it cost me £30 or £35. I will agree that my machinist is very good at what he does. He's incredibly helpful and is always available to do work for me, and the work he does is brilliant and very well priced.

I think Binge said something about it staying there for three days by default, and longer if he tells it to save it for longer. (?)

Confirm, Binge!

Glissant · « **Reply #716 on:** Sun, 18 August 2013, 01:08:30 »

I would suggest this http://www.twitchtools.com/video-download.php . I've only used it once, but it worked just fine when I did. The video will be segmented, but that is probably for the best since it's an almost four hour long stream ^^.

I'm downloading it right now. A bit silly, wish I could have just saved it while streaming it.

Is anyone able to post it to YouTube or something?

Glissant · « **Reply #721 on:** Sun, 18 August 2013, 01:27:33 »

I can start doing that once everything is downloaded. Unless someone else wants to do it

Would they allow a 4 hour video? (or we could do chunks)

I do think Binge can save it so it'll be available for some time to come.

Glissant · « **Reply #723 on:** Sun, 18 August 2013, 02:12:01 »

Well I've joined the files and I am currently uploading the file to youtube. No errors so far, but maybe they will be pissy at some point.

The video will be here

when it's done processing or whatever.
I'm going to bed to touch my wife. Good night!

MOZ · « **Reply #724 on:** Sun, 18 August 2013, 02:19:55 »

All those awesome keys!

Thanks, Glissant for the upload, for others, if you have IDM, you can open the 4hour feed on Twitch and it will give you a small popup if you want to download the video, it is around 400MB.

rarar · « **Reply #725 on:** Sun, 18 August 2013, 02:20:20 »

thanks glissant! wow, just drove 290 miles before I gave up the wheel, I love having my permit now lol. I made it from just outside of Chicago all the way to about an hour from st Paul. WHYYY did he have to make plans sunday right after this... I'm gonna be sleeping in until like 6Pm tomorrow, I got no sleep camping last night and won't be home til 3AM tonight, but all worth it to have been able to attend this

thanks to boiler for making this possible, and once I have my techkeys business card soldered up, I'll post a video of it

Yeah well now it's up on Youtube too, and I'll keep it unlisted so you have to have the link to see it. Just let me know if you want me to take it down, Binge.

I think I heard someone mention my name, but it was probably me just wishing I was as sexy as MAJBadAss

+1

dianoda brought a studio quality product shot setup with him and tried to take product style shots of as many of the amazing things at the con as he could. as you can see, kawa kamera spent most of its time sitting in kawa korner, so HUGE THANK YOU TO DIANODA.

on the way home we discussed getting the same quality, color correct shots of color chips with weird reflective properties like the SP polycarb chips. i think we came up with some good ideas, so hopefully we can get some good reflectivity properties and color measurements from them that can be used with kaporkle's method for modeling keysets and matt3o's front-end for displaying and configuring them

These can be used to control just about any matrix keyboard with the right pin-outs, right?

Hehe, I would have loved to have the tools and time to do this while I was out in the windy city. I'm so glad you were able to save them! If you have an artistic friend I'm sure they can get out all of the rough spots, finish the look, and paint them

Of course I'll be happy to do it as well. They take shipping in a small box very well.
