Things you recently bought or got

My fiancee saw it while browsing around, and instantly wanted it cuz she wants to do a "stars" theme for the nursery. Closest thing we could find for this was like $500-$1500, her parents are making this one for like $100 worth of lumber.

You should put some eyes on it and make it like a moon from mario odyssey

Spilling site secrets now Mr Flame? Started off with blogging on the forums and now this. Worse still on a screen that looks to be about 640x480.

Anyway better post something. Usual mountain of books and tools (you can see a lovely corner clamp in the shot below). Nobody probably cares about my new to be but still very old copy of Arabian Nights or an 1897 book on household plumbing though. Gaming wise you can see the small mountain of Wii remotes and nunchucks I picked up for next to nothing. Not sure what I plan to do with them yet but


To become a gentleman of leisure proved to be too expensive so instead I decided to be a gentleman of leather which was still reasonably expensive (£52 in total for both of those), also got an old Army kit bag because they are very useful.

That is already looking amazing. Make sure to post the finished pics.

Indeed, it looks great. They're cutting out some stars on each side towards the top, then all they have to do is build the base and paint it and it'll be done. Still unsure what colors we want just yet, but we've got until ~the end of January to decide

*rant*

So I heard back from the repair shop, they agree the unit is defective, they're offering a replacement or a refund. I feel so vindicated.

Love it

Fiancee set aside a bit of money for my birthday, so I used it for books.

And, thanks to Thriftbook's new "Reading Rewards" thing, I got a "free" book...which is...

Did a new PC Build.

i7 8700k
H100i V2 cooler
AX860 PSU
ASUS Prime Z370-A mobo
Ballistix Sport LT DDR4 32GB RAM
NZXT S340 Elite case
Samsung 970 EVO 250GB M.2 SSD

Carried over 970 (which will be upgraded soon :]) from old build

Very happy with the build and the performance, and was the first time I went with a liquid cooler, and oh god how easy it was to install compared to a stock cooler *shudders* or any air cooler I've worked with - I'm even including the radiator in the comparison

I ordered Dominos and all I got was these spotty tile things that taste nothing like pizza. Yes, I tried them.

 

[FAST6191]

If your frame of reference for pizza is Domino's then chances are you don't know pizza.
Alternatively
You say it tastes nothing like Domino's but surely that means it has some taste at all.

Anyway best post something again
A slate ripper, a cheapo panel beating kit, the complete kano jiu jitsu (all illustrated) which does also include "the serious and fatal blows" (apparently making it an older edition) as well as old school Japanese CPR (though it is called kuatsu here). Oh and a little 1883 "engineers' and mechanics' pocket book" by a guy named haswell. 5, 15, 5 and 3 pounds for those concerned with monies.

 

[Silterpy]

I preordered destiny 2 forsaken +annual pass and My brother in law got me this.

Gamecube extension cable & a small project box. I put together a raphnet n64/gc to usb adapter years ago, but never bothered to box it. Decided to finally do it to make it a bit nicer and add the gamecube connector as well. Got spiderman as well.
