Labupdate:

Thinned the herd, we’re down to a cozy 500w, but looks a little thin at the moment…

Still trying to find a solid alternative for 10gb switching that isn’t horrendously expensive / hungry.

I normally only share the rough concept art with my Syndicate members (Patreon), or you have to tune in to the stream...

Buuuut it's a special extraterrestrial celebration kind of day so here's a preview of what's coming soon! 👽

#LabUpdate

I'm tired of re-formatting all these updates to be optimized for every platform, so have a screenshot from my Telegram channel instead

#LabUpdate Feeling much better today; got most of my BLFC shirts done!

#LabUpdate I am on the journey home & have phone data again; I'll be back to work tomorrow

I intend to finish adding LVFC clients to my Trello queue first, then continue processing FE orders with missing info & reviewing other messages as my ability/spoons/time allows

#LabUpdate "Bird" was the first Metamorphic decal I ever finished, right before the pandemic lockdown

Back when I didn't know what I was doing with my software, my process, my direction...

So 4 years & 80+ species later, I finally gave my oldest one the makeover it deserved ✨

#LabUpdate
File -> Save As -> "andraconix_Rise_THICC.svg"

This is adjustment #4 of my "Rise" shirt design, but I'm finally calling it complete!

Took me awhile to identify all the problem areas & find a balance in line weight for both DTF printing & UV-reactive vinyl versions

(Animated GIF when, BlueSky??)

My "Metamorphic" designs have had a metamorphosis!

Adjusted the line weight (again), created new templates & made a universal style guide—parameters such as determining placement/scale for each kind & size of product

Now faster to do commission mockups & file prep!🧵

Today I made updates to 40 heccin orders on my queue!
mythimorph.com/orders

Spent all day weeding soooo much vinyl

Here at the end of the day, I'm now re-creating my crossing sign templates based on the number of characters (text) to make editing them for orders much faster!

#LabUpdate So busy working I forgot to post this the other day!

This pile represents 84 cut designs for nearly all the vinyl shirts currently on my queue (42 shirts, double-layered)

Planning the layout takes time, as I try to make full use of the material to create less waste
March 10, 2024 at 7:10 PM
#LabUpdate Good news everyone!

Direct URLs to orders on the queue are functioning properly again! (Trello bug I found & reported). Easier to check on progress now

Black vinyl is restocked! Enough for 200 shirts—it's a base layer used to stabilize & add durability to cut designs

#LabUpdate I will be out of town the rest of this week (working a side gig at 4 day event). Back at it again Monday

I've figured out the quirks on the new cutter & software now! Was on a roll, but ran out of backer vinyl for shirts. Just ordered 150ft of it, arrives Mon

#LabUpdate GOOOOOAL!!!
The Trello list has now been 100% updated 🎉

Thank you all so much for your patience! If you haven't heard from me yet, please reach out on Telegram or Email

So what happens next? LOTS & LOTS OF VINYL CUTTING now that I finally have not one, but two working machines!
February 2, 2024 at 6:32 AM
Updated the Trello today with all the orders from Anthro Northwest! Goal is to wrap up the rest from Further Confusion tomorrow.

Whew… ALMOST THERE #LabUpdate

#LabUpdate All of the MFF orders have finally been added to Trello (mythimorph.com/orders) & clients contacted! Please let me know if I missed you

Tomorrow I start the ANW orders, then FC will follow

The amount of time I end up spending on data entry is surprising!
January 26, 2024 at 5:03 AM
#LabUpdate I am finally on my way home today, extra delays due to weather. Got a 3 hour drive ahead of me, unpacking, & one more day of recovery. Monday is back in the lab, making the things!
January 20, 2024 at 10:00 PM
#LabUpdate Quick note: Trello Order queue does not have all MFF & ANW orders added yet!

I finally began sorting through the list of clients to contact yesterday. I absolutely see your messages & I will get to you!

(I got terrible con crud, then holidays, & travel for 3 weeks)
January 11, 2024 at 10:10 PM
Warranty replacement machine is being unboxed now!

I have to head to ANW tonight for table setup, but in the meantime working on as many orders as I can

This cutter is much better suited for the 🚸 project, since it can multi-pass different depths—helps align vinyl #LabUpdate
