Productive

I had a very productive night, not only working on tasks related to getting back from the trip but a number of other things as well. One of those things was getting the X1C set up in the office. To make room I did a printer shuffle which included moving one of my Prusa’s to the guest bedroom. Setting up and calibrating the X1C took some time.

My first test print messed up so I think I have some more tweaking to do yet. I also set up my Prusa Mini for the first time in over a year just to make sure it still works. The printer has been collecting dust on a shelf for quite awhile. My plan is to sell that printer and possibly two more. If I am not using them, why keep them.

I also unboxed a sand art device that arrived while I was gone. I ordered it over a month ago. I have seen these for years and always wanted one. It utilizes a small metal ball with a magnet underneath to draw patterns in fine white sand. When combined with the RGB lighting it sets a very chill vibe. I really like it.

When I was doing the set up of the X1C I was having an issue seeing well because the lighting in the office is less than fantastic. I remembered another box that came while I was gone, a head mounted light device.

This thing is fantastic. Sure you look a little ridiculous but man does it light up whatever you are working on. No more need to try to awkwardly use your phone light as the head mounted option lights up whatever you are looking at. I’m not quite sure how I have managed to go this long with out one.

When I finally retired to bed it was with a feeling of satisfaction for making my Tuesday evening especially productive.
