Being diabetic , i got a Ninja Speedi today . does everything in one go. much healthier too if used properly.

Much better than those cheap carvery dinners 😉

Why does it always rain when “The Addams Family” return from their holiday lol ?

Hilarious 😉

My last hoover took a turn for the worse . luckily i could trade it in for £50 off this beast ..

I havent bothered uploading any footage for a while, i had sold my old drone as i was undergoing hospital appointments , doctors etc.

Although , im not in the best of health , i decided i wanted to get back to flying again .

I purchased a DJI Mini 3 , better camera , stronger wind resistance , and a built in screen on the controller so much easier now that i dont need to connect a phone anymore.

i still have an operator number and am allowed to fly with much less restrictions so ill be posting stuff pretty soon..

Not content with owning one 3dprinter , i got another a few months back.

However , Bambu Lab was celebrating their birthday and was offering deals i couldnt refuse.

Im now the proud owner of a bambu lab A1 , a bambu lab A1 mini and a Bambu lab P1S.

That should keep me entertained a while 🙂

Ive not been around again i know , its been a very bad year .

i’m usually upbeat and like to act the fool but this post wont be funny in the slightest.

Since my last update regarding my cancer scare , although i had the news that i was clear regarding the bladder cancer tests. Unfortunately my consultant had found i have an aortic aneurysm. i can deal with that at the moment , its 3.3cm in size ( should be 2cm) , however i wouldnt be considered for surgery until its in the 5.5cm range due to the risks involved. So with that im placed on a watch list and will have regular scans .

My Mother in law passed away . im not going to go into details on here , i wish to keep this private.

also , as if that wasnt enough , my brother also passed away last month … again , i prefer not to disclose any more details .

There is some better news i can report , my daughter is expecting her first child imminently so im gonna be a grandad or Pa !

hopefully ill now be around more to keep the site updated. im sorry for the downtime .

…With 3d Printers lol

It was only a few weeks ago i showed you my latest printer. However, the company and its product impressed me so much i decided to buy its little baby too.

Dont let its size fool you , its just as capable as its big brother and has the option to print in multicolour too and just as quickly.

The Bambu lab A1 Mini …

They seem to be getting along nicely 🙂

New addition to the garden this year , we decided we needed a greenhouse ( i eat too many tomatoes lol ) .

this should help keep the cost of living down a little. just need to start the tidying from winter now.

It was time to get a new phone , and as o2 was offering £200 off how could i refuse.

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra in titanium black. At £1,300 , its already got its hardened glass screen protector and caseology case installed.

(security code sticker blanked out )

just need to sort the insurance now …

….actually 2 upgrades

My 3 year old printer wasnt getting much love , it was slow, and i spent more time tuning the printer rather than printing.

fast forward to jan 2024 and i upgraded to another ender , this time the ender 3 v3 se.

although it is a great printer as its a direct loader and also has auto bed leveling , i needed more , ideally the option to print easily in several colours and also an enclosed unit allowing me to print a much wider range of material for use outside as well as inside.

Fast forward a month , and i present to you my latest edition , the bambu lab P1S. https://bambulab.com/en/p1

Its not a cheap printer coming in at just under £1000 with the AMS and filament , however a print that would take me 48 hours on the older printers can be done in hours. fully controllable from my mobile or PC from anywhere in the world.

i will upload some videos on my 3d printer section soon so take a look.
