Almost 5 years ago, and we had no idea it would be such a wild ride! All the fans I've met over the years has been such a heartwarming pleasure everytime. And now #HorizonForbiddenWest has gone gold as well ❤️

I come with you with great news today. Me and my friends have launched Humanbrew.
It's a small Discord server dedicated to homebrew made without AI. By humans, for humans. 🫶
Let's learn from each other, let's make cool things and let's have fun. :)
This is such a cool offer by @PeacefulOutcome ! Join for a chance to win an #ezBuff, but you can also always build one yourself as well if you dont want to wait ;D
We haven't been using this enough, and Dennis' project deserves more eyes on it. So, we've giving away the EZBUFF we've shown here before. The thread is below for more info.

After 3 years of work, I’m excited to introduce Renaissance Gears for the N64. What they are and how they perform, a 🧵.

@PointerFunction Yesterday I tried using Meguiars Ultimate Compound for 30 secs. + Meguiars Ultimate Polish also 30 secs. No success. So today I tried Meguiars PlastX and Ultimate Polish. Both 1 minute, 24 v, medium speed while spraying water every 5 seconds. It worked.

Had my first go with the ezBuff tonight. It took some getting used to. But, with just Meguiar's PlastiX, I was able to get this result on an OG Xbox cd. It did not have any real big/deep scratches. The largest scratch it had is the squiggly one you can see in the top of the 2nd pic.

Just gotta print out the rails and we'll be done. Assembly has been very easy considering all the mating parts. This really is an excellent design by @PointerFunction! I do have some notes that I'll send since you said you're looking for feedback.

Got all the big bits printed up today for @PointerFunction's RGR ezBuff (optical disc resurfacer / polisher). Waiting for parts to come in, but excited to get this build underway. So far, its coming along great. Very good design. You can tell a lot of thought went into it.
Look ma! I’m on hackaday ❤️
