      Oh no – I have cursed everyone with my hardware woes!  

      I now have a working computer once again but the project is so close to done that there’s nothing left for me to jump in and contribute; it seems everyone’s work is for the most part done, or close to done, and every part of the Dog is taken care of.  That’s okay, I’m happy to have done the work I did – that was so much fun, I really enjoyed this project and I can’t wait to see what the next one will be like!  Meantime I’ve started working through Wayne’s animation flow.

        @jakeblended That’s good news from your side 😀! And I can reassure you: Not everyone’s computer here is cursed 😉. I’m trying my luck with sculpting and animating @theluthier ‘s Piero.

          Kent Trammell (theluthier)  Thank you very much for your support.  

          Omar Domenech (dostovel) Geraghty is pronounced GUR-raa-tee. First syllable as in girl, second as in rat and third, tea. It is an very ancient surname belonging to a Celtic warrior clan who were once kings, princes, lords, etc. They lost all their castles and aristocracy back in 16th century, when they fought against Oliver Cromwell’s troops. After their losses to invaders, they fought on as rebels and freedom fighters. Geraghty is an anglicised version of MagOireachtaigh.

            Thanks Pound crew. I feel the love. Such a fun team to be a part of to be honest. I feel like we have grown to know one another here at the Cookie as members because of this project.

            That is worth the price of admission!

              Kent Trammell (theluthier) I will continue modelling as long as I imagine myself sitting inside a stolen backhoe belonging to County Council and me crashing into their buildings, especially homes belonging to corrupt politicans and investors.  No worries, they will NEVER get our place, not with protestors squatting inside and chaining themselves to the place. It will be years before they get us out..

                I agree 100%. Before classes and the DOG collab I never felt like I knew members here. I recognized a handful of usernames but no actual familiarity. And that was after 4-5 years at CGC…Now I’ve got legitimate online friends up in here! Talking Blender, developing inside jokes, talking real life. It’s a cool thing. COOL THING I say!

                PS: Tis a real bummer about the hardware woes. Makes me look down at Linux Luke to say a little jedi prayer that he keeps up the good fight.

                  Speaking of inside jokes and Jedi.

                  There were two Jedi’s sitting down to eat and the one told the other excitedly:
                  (Jedi #1) “I didn’t know that Yoda had a last name!”
                  (Jedi #2) “Neither did I?!? ……….What is it?”
                  (Jedi #1) “Lay He Who!”

                  (If you have trouble just try saying the full name aloud……….. and it may only be an American joke, haha. As Yoda would say: “See we shall”)

                    I just got “The Google” installed on my work PC and it is syncing tonight. Blender is already there heh heh. I’m going to miss some of my add-ons though. Gonna try to get my default layout set back up. You don’t know how much you love it until you don’t have it anymo

                        Just been mole’n the master file, looking great.

                        @artifact are you still with us?

                        I noticed you hadn’t updated your file for a while. If I remember correctly your engine enclosure needed some touch up, tightening up some edges.

                        If you haven’t got the time or any other issues , I can look at it for you if you like.

                          I thought about checking in on the modeling today too. Glad the other mole’s got my back.

                          How’s the rest of the team doing? Anyone getting in over their heads and in need of a respite? Or are we chugging along towards the finish line?

                            @blanchsb I call my rear axle finished and waiting for texturing. There’re only some slight adjustments necessary described in my rear axle thread here.

                              @adrian2301 Can’t get rid of me THAT easily. Still here and working. I aim to finish it by coming Wednesday at the latest.

                                Thanks for the quick replies @duerer and @artifact.

                                @pfbourassa did you get me commentary regarding the hydraulics on the bucket and the supports sliding over just a touch? If you can’t get to it I can take a look and slide things over a little if you don’t mind.

                                How’s things coming from @dostovel @spikeyxxx @abm3010 @ritag on the other interior parts? I know Rita is having life get in the way and Spikey and I have taken the Steering wheel and chair assemblies.

                                I am posting my progress for the chair here:

                                  Glad to hear it @artifact 

                                  @blanchsb , @duerer I will take a look at the chassis intersect
