  • Microphone stand

    After reviewing a number of tutorials on YouTube video creation, I ended up ordering an Amazon branded microphone stand, as an impromptu camera stand.  This is a cheap option, and my concern was its ability to support and handle the weight of a camera.  It arrived, and after some testing, I am rather happy with…

  • Video content

    Still struggling to find a format for the creation of YouTube content, after numerous challenges and setbacks.  I have found that game play videos are simply too long and involved to make good content – they are rather dull to watch, take forever to edit down, and I don’t have the gear to make them…

    I doubt I had anyone actually bother to watch my 3d printer in action, and if you had, then you likely found that the performance was certainly lacking.  As an alternative, I have now instead configured it to run through my YouTube Live channel, with a streaming option instead.  This provides far better quality, which…

  • 3D Printing View Port

    Are you mesmerized by an active 3D printer like I am?  Can you stare for hours watching the robotic arm move back and forth as it slowly builds a model millimeter by millimeter?  If so, then I have a fun little new option with my printer – a live feed that runs pretty much all…
