Hey Patrons!
Another month has slipped by, so it's time to update the credits in the videos and on the blog. All new Sprocket's Patrons who joined in August have been added, and stickers will go in the mail shortly to all you new folks.

Heya Sprocket's Patrons! There was a glitch with my new credits system that debuted recently. A few random peoples' names disappeared from the credits. I honestly am not sure why, but when I redid them the second time, the missing names are back. Thanks to those of you who let me know about this ...

2023-05-02 17:19:55 +0000 UTC View PostIt's funny- the new behind the scenes video format has generated a ton more questions than I usually get about the process on this boiler. I take that to mean a lot more people are watching the bonus videos, which is great!
This is another question that has come up so often that it'll be mo...
