Unrealistic expectations
The guys at MakerBot just posted a job opening for a MakerBot blogger. As if their list of qualifications wasn’t daunting enough, the tweet that follows… Well, I’ll just let it speak for itself.
MakerBot Blogger Wanted: http://bit.ly/dur4vK (also: dinosaurs with lasers wanted)
You want a robot obsessed dinosaur with lasers? 1 What kind of a job posting is that?
- I don’t recall that as an option on career day. [↩]
Open Source Printable Building Blocks FTW!
A few weeks ago I posted my criteria for an interlocking building block system:
- The interlocking system should allow interconnections in three dimensions.
- The pieces should snap/interlock together reasonably well/easily.
- The pieces should stay assembled reasonably well.
- The pieces should snap apart reasonably well/easily.
- The pieces should not require additional tools to be assembled and disassembled.
Well, just yesterday r3becca of Robots and Dinosaurs posted designs for “Beco Blocks” on Thingiverse. From the looks of things these Beco Blocks fit every criteria! I can’t wait to print up a bunch!
