Näpunäidete lahtrisse: Print and Play gaming, DIY toruprogrammide kinnitused ja Android-taimerid

As awesome as that 3D-printed dungeon crawler you guys shared is… not many of us have a 3D printer! Until the day I’ve got my own garage 3D printer to crank out sweet 3D games, I’ll be sticking with print and play games of a more papery variety. For 99% of my print and play needs I turn to the awesome archive at Board Game Geek. The wiki covers the basics of actually doing the printing/crafting and the links to the game archives gives you plenty to play.

As much as I dig a good carpentry project, carpentry just isn’t my thing… so that makes me a poor candidate for your wood triple-monitor stand project. That said, I do love a good monitor stand made out of sturdy metal. I built mine earlier this summer using this guy’s build log as a template. Hidden wiring, clean lines, nice heavy base, it’s like buying a cheap stand from Monoprice but getting the heft and quality of a $$$ stand.

You wouldn’t think it would be hard to find, but it’s a real pain to find a simple Android timer that had nice big buttons, a nice big read out, and just gets the dang job done. I found Kitchen Timer earlier this week and after way too much searching and testing timers out, I have one I’m happy with. It’s free, well reviewed, but surprisingly not heavily downloaded. I’m spreading the word!
