Now that I’ve washed my eyes of  the simulated throwing motion of some of the Pax, I can now see clearly to type.

I saw this picture on twitter of a donkey wearing a scarf and couldn’t stop laughing.  I really wanted to try and work the pic into the pre-blast but ultimately decided not too. Also it has nothing to do with the Blender or my Q tomorrow.  Anyway, I’m hoping the dry conditions will not keepContinueContinue reading “2/13/2018 Blender PreBlast at the Mutt”
