I am hoping to improve the You Tube videos I make. I just received the six MEVO wireless HD cameras from Amazon, along with mini tripods, long USB-C cables, and other things. So I can set cameras onto table now, and attach one to the carriage, etc., and just switch from one camera to another with my iPhone as I record.
I get to use the new X-Tool laser to cut custom foam inserts for a HFT case to hold them all too. I have to tell you, this laser just might push me over the edge to get a a REAL laser soon. This thing is awesome! The first outdoor test happens tomorrow, right after the banjo lesson. Yep, I am a learnin' to play the banjo too.

Re: More Cameras
Right on, curious to hear how your foam cutting goes. How messy and stinky is out? How does it turn out? That sort of thing.

Re: More Cameras
I am going to experiment with the various foams, white styrofoam, the black closed cell foam that is normally used in equipment cases, also HDU (Sign Foam) and others. The machine will be moved outdoors, so the smoke detectors don't all fire off simultaneously, AGAIN.plasmanewbie wrote: ↑Wed Aug 17, 2022 10:09 am Right on, curious to hear how your foam cutting goes.

Re: More Cameras
I bought some of those anti-fatigue mats from Harbor Freight Tools. You know the type. They set on the floor in front of work benches and snap together like puzzle pieces.
The THOUGHT is to lay out the interior of equipment cases, and build the foam inserts layer by layer, gluing them together and moving the interior shapes as needed. I have to move the laser outside tomorrow, and try to cut up a mat, to see if it cuts, or if I set the house on fire. I would think that it should cut the mats well. They are dark gray, which the blue diode lasers require, and the foam is medium density. Who knows! Maybe I will start a new trend.

Re: More Cameras
I am not there yet. too many things getting in the way. Maybe tomorrow? Or maybe after Wednesday? I got into the shop and started cleaning and sorting, and a few hours later, the day was over. I will make some videos of the process once I dive into it, with fire extinguisher at the ready!
