Walther’s Cornerstone Merchant’s Row II
https://www.paper-tiger.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/cornertower-190x170.jpg
Let me just put it this way: this build was a major learning experience. I don’t think I quite realized what I had gotten myself in to when I chose it. It did turn out pretty well in the end, …
Light Blocking Merchant’s Row – Experiment #2
https://www.paper-tiger.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/benchtest-190x116.jpg

Sci-Fi Best List (with Bonus Silliness)
https://www.paper-tiger.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/windowseat-190x142.jpg
There’s nothing like a good science fiction book or movie to bring out the shamefully-uneducated, mostly irrelevant armchair scientist in me. Read a good one, or (less likely) watch a good one, and I can rave for hours about the …
