Do you make stuff?

New pinwheel design using water rippled glass. See the effect on the 3rd photo.

I also hit the jackpot today. A woman was clearing out her fathers storage locker from his former glass business. I purchased loads of incredible glass for super cheap! She just wanted it gone. It was incredible!!!

I've had some really good knitting momentum lately. I ended up finishing a pair of socks I started last year (and continue to ignore the ones I started like 5 years ago)

I also made a sweater:

I have another project that is close to being done and then I think I'm going to start something new.

Love this!!! And what great yarn for socks.

I took the time to go through my yarn last weekend and I found a sweater that I have almost completed. I think I'm going to go ahead and seam and finish it.
 
I’ve been working on a mystery cross stitch along pattern. I’m almost done with the first clue with the second one coming June 1st. This is a large piece that will be 19.5” x 19.5” full coverage. It’s been a good thing to work on during these isolation periods.

I also made the grime guard to wrap up excess fabric and the needle minder. I used an old Emily the Strange button on one side and a WFMU button on the other.
 
I’ve been making guitar pedals from kits (so soldering them, labelling the boxes and boxing it all up). I studied electronics so should really be doing it from scratch but I’ve been easing myself back in for now.

Here are my two most recent builds, a pre-amp and a tremolo:

That's awesome. What's a kit cost? I might try this.

Really, depends what you decide to build and where you are! Lots of good background information and links to suppliers on r/DIYpedals - reckon you could pick up a fuzz pedal kit in the £20 to £30 range with case and components, maybe less depending on where you go. I’ve been buying kits from www.fuzzdog.co.uk but have a couple where I’ve just bought a pcb and will get the components myself, and have a couple further ideas for things I’ll do on vero board from schematics.

Do you already have a soldering iron, solder, etc?

edit: feel free to DM with any questions
