Added 2023-12-20 11:10:09 +0000 UTCHave you seen the price of precision metrology equipment lately? Neither have I, I've been too busy rubbing these sticks together (And trying to animate the explanation of why).
Thanks for the early support you've all given me, and while I'm still deciding on whether or not early releases here on Patreon will be something I'll stick with in the future, I wanted to give you guys a treat.
Hope you're all getting a good break over the New Year period, I'm definitely looking forward to getting a couple of days' rest! Haha.

2023-12-21 06:23:16 +0000 UTCThere are plenty of excuses: It takes forever, can be pretty boring, at the end you've got trust issues with the concept of flatness -just to name a few!
