Sometimes my impromptu drawings are like self-administered Rorschach tests. I’m always finding new ways of looking at the finished product. I would really be interested to know what it is you find in this one, which could be anything from futuristic sails unfurling to robotic DNA:

Here’s a quick one. I’m calling it moonrise.

I made a funny.

It is not notably functional; although I have had friends offer their suggestions. Sadly most good ideas ( “Make it a lamp!” ) would require a completely new build: utility would have to be part of it’s design from the beginning of the project. It does however make a nice candle holder / nightlight:

Nightlight mode: activated.

Pictures from the build below.

The first pickle I encountered was that it can be ver tricky to drill through porcelain:
1) Too much pressure and you break this brittle material,
2) Go too fast without lubrication and you can overheat you drill bit,
3) Using lubrication virtually prevents drill bit from digging at all,
4) You must use a drill bit specifically designed for glass & tile with a carbide tip. If you can’t get your hands on that at least use a masonry bit.

Here’s a marker gradient I did one night recently.

It makes a great desktop picture. Feel free.
