Episode 405

Todays stream is a bit different as we are missing one of our most important pieces of tech to run the stream so: Today we are only streaming to youtube, the multistreaming to twitch and X will be back tomorrow. We are also streaming in lower res compared to the 4K of our normal program, 4K returns tomorrow. Please bare with us for any other tech issues today!

Derek shared great information with me regarding sketching on mate connectors & Amalgamante for repetitive tasks:

These streams are designed to let Martin spend as much time as possible building the Marble Machine, while still bringing you along for the process. Come hang out with us in the workshop as it happens.

As always, times may shift slightly depending on the build, but this is the structure we’re aiming for going forward.

See you in the workshop and on Wintergatan Wednesday’s!
