Day 11


I finished the pneumatic ram and restrainers. Today's test had me very nervous because if it failed the entire project would be scrapped. It worked quite well despite fears that it would splinter apart.


The puff of smoke is flour I had put in to verify air was coming out of the side tubes.


After I finished that part I tried to attach the tube to the system. After about 6 hours of work I am no closer to actually getting the thing on.

Currently it weighs 50lbs (22kg) and has become far more complicated that I ever imagined.

Damn, it looks like we lost the humble bundle. Oh well, we tried our best.

I would have donated, but I already have most of the games that were in the bundle. I decided to save more money for the next one.

*edit*
Correction Humble Brony Bundle won again. Turns out the server had a moment and just didn't know what went wrong. We beat Notch by $822.17

Well, I've written a prologue and gone some distance into a chapter. SO SERIOUS.

I had a Pony dream last night, a really crazy one. I was watching an episode, I believe the first episode of season three. The episode specifically dealt with racism and depression.

I don't really remember much, but I'll fill in what memory gaps I can.

Equestria is but one continent, and Twilight and co found themselves off in another area populated with humans. The humans didn't care for magical beasts and had a pretty well, GTFO attitude about them. I don't remember why everyone had to go here, but I know the climax of the episode involved Spike doing something really badass. I wish I could remember what that was. Pinkie did something crazy too, but I also can't remember.

What sticks out very vividly is the end. Raibowdash and Applejack were conversing, apologizing to each other over something that happened earlier. Twilight talked to them for a bit, but then left because she had to go write a letter. She was feeling pretty depressed though, but I'm not sure why. I think she wasn't included in something important, or the attitude of the town was getting to her.

The episode ended with still shots and some slow music. RBD and AJ were sneaking into places they weren't wanted and then running away in fits of laughter, not caring about the attitude of the shitty town. Twilight wanted to stop in at a bar to get a drink (yes, a bar, there was a sign that said "bar" above the bar), but she wasn't allowed in for being of magic decent. She was super depressed, and the next slide showed her walking away and then her friends finding her to comfort her.

It's an episode that will never get made for so many reasons, but I liked it and still do. Could make a fanfic I suppose, but I've no time for that.

There are a couple theories out there similar to that. Basically that their planet is either a parallel timeline earth or a planet that has human visitors in the past. It would explain so much about their iconoclastic technology.

Day 12


I was finally able to attach the tube after some very frustrating cutting. The tube is screwed on in a few places, though it was very hard to get the drill in there (I actually had to put the screw in by
hoof). It is also glued along everywhere it contacts with the wood. The face of the cannon has been attached (though I accidentally put it on upside down).

I have also finished the air system. I added the branches to the T-brackets on the off shoot pipe. These run four narrow pipes to the face where small holes have been drilled for the air to escape. I also cut and glued the elbow on the
mane branches so then it would allow the air to exit out the
mane tube firing the confetti. I cut holes in the
mane tube so the pipes would fit and attached them with glue.

Right now it weighs about 60lbs and is five
hooves long. I didn’t realize how large it was until I tried to turn it around.

All I have left on the internal frame is to build the firing button (and for some reason my valve has decided to start being sticky).

I will post video of it testing tomorrow. The weather was quite bad here today

(I don't know what happened with the last two lines, I did my best to fix them)

Well DeadMau5 isn't a brony and was just messing around, however andrew wk is.

Also apparently in askjappleack the true enemy isn't discord, it's a titan. Quick someone summon hercules.

Coworker decided she would look up the show because I harassed everyone there enough about it. She watched the first two episodes and told me it was boring. So like a Mormon that was let into your house, I began the negotiation. She's watched the first two episodes, which are a good introduction to the characters, so I sold her on checking out 3 more, one including bridle gossip. SOON... SOOON

I know that feeling.

It's kinda hard to get people to try and watch the show though. Even with completely spoiling the plot for the season 2 finale people still use the "but it's for little girls" excuse :\

Need to know what sells. Bipolar disorder and pony racism usually grabs their ear. Then talk about how a pony was sent to hell.

Ponies are okay.

Llamas are better. I'll give Cartoon Network millions for a My Little Llama series.

Speaking of Llamas am I the only one that thinks the ponies in mlp:fim don't actually look like ponies? They look like a crossbreed between Llamas and deer or something.

Plus their anatomy is just weird.

Frankly I don't care what they are, they are adorable and funny, and that is all that matters.
