Gray day but with a decadent ending

 
18th of June 2024

Tue Jun 18 2024, 6:33:27 pm CET Today it is cold for the season, rainy and generally a grey day. I am enjoying some leftovers for lunch and soon I will have to drive J to the tram station. He has one of his very last exams (still one to go; French tomorrow which marks the end of the exam period for this time) today.

We are home alone this evening, and we are planning a decadent dinner with meat, fries (served with a real pepper sauce) and wine. How is that saying, "when the cat's away, the mice will play". Maybe I will have a picture later...

Like I was saying earlier, the order I received polyterra 3d printingThe filament from Polymaker is my favorite. from 123-3D arrived yesterday and I am rather excited about it. It is always great to receive filaments; to see the colour in real life and imagine the projects that will match. But I also ordered a PEI heatbed plate for my Creality 3D printer. As you can see it is the original Creality gold plate kit. Meaning that it has the bottom part that glues stuck and then on the other side a magnetic coating on which the PEI plate rests on. This is a rather big thing on a printer having the old school glass plate.
