I have the gift of desiring, of inventing more and more desires, of never knowing satiation and dullness. And I am cursed with the lack of genius for renunciation.

The multi-dimensional vice I designed and modeled for the bottom of my accessible tablet holder. Just need to add some formatting last touches and this will also be all set to 3D-print. Will probs post a more decent screen recording of it later..🛠️😅🤖

Coming up in Journey To Excelsior!
Two and a Half Scientists: Alvin sets out to prove there can be more than one scientist in the Seville family. Simon and Dave struggle to adapt to this change. At the same time, Brittany fails to help Alvin become popular again. This convinces her that there’s more to Alvin’s change than self improvement and she gets Simon convinced too! Meanwhile, Theodore and Jeanette struggle to smooth things over between their bickering siblings. Then, Eleanor decides to go punk to try and be noticed. It’s a WILD ride.

Just like Ancient Rome Swansea was built on seven hills, one for each of the deadly sins. Trouble was they needed some new hills, they’d been busy enough inventing new sins. - Matt Thomas

does anyone know how you get something invented? like if you have an idea for an app or invention or product that you’d think would do pretty well but don’t even know how to start? can I just tell someone my idea and be handed money or do you have to already be independently wealthy to be ‘an idea guy’?
