Sticklers and Tanks!
Added 2021-04-02 19:37:35 +0000 UTCHey Patrons! It's the start of a new month, and that means stickers go out and thank-you credits are updated. If you joined as a Rockstar Patron in March, you will now be in the credits of my videos and blog, and stickers are in the mail to you. Note that the month-switch just missed this week's video upload, so tomorrow morning's video will have the old credits. Look next week for your name, if you are new!

This month's "background book" is an issue of the American Machinist periodical, from 1884, donated by a viewer! This is not a reprint, this is an honest-to-goodness antique (which I am keeping carefully stored away from light, normally). It's a really lovely thing, full of ads and projects for all your line-shaft and treadle machine tools (as one would have in 1884).
Thanks again for all your support, Patrons! I hope you're all safe and well during this pandemic, and I hope you will all get vaccinated as soon as you are eligible.
