Nick Smith, aka Ulillillia, has fallen on hard times
I only found out today that a fellow autistic creator I have long admired is apparently in a very tough spot. Having moved from his home state to Oregon, he now cannot afford to move back, is suffering a variety of smaller hardships related to that (He moved out here expecting to be able to find a p...

A belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
No video this month as you may have noticed, had a lot of family and friends activities centering around Christmas and New Years, a lot of driving, leaving me exhausted. Hope your holidays went well, I'll be back with a new video on the first of next month about sealing up the double decker habi...
Double-Decker Hab Tower Construction, Part 2
Plus robot shenanigans, and taming some crow bros
Hampture is on Life Support
Plus some lesser side projects
No video this month, still working on module
Nothing much to report on, still working on the double decker module as well as animating. Nothing worth showing yet. Funding is dropping too which is making it hard to acquire new components, so I am working on what I have built so far rather than trying to build a second module at the same time tb...
4 mice purchased, one escaped, two currently submerged
They can be viewed live on the Twitch channel right now. I've set a non-lethal trap for the escaped one, hopefully that works out. If not, back to the pet store. >:IUpdate: Non-lethal trap worked, mouse captured unharmed
Pond update
Having trouble getting video off my new phone, sorry for no YouTube video. A lot is happening in the yard though. You wanted a pond, you're getting a pond! This was always necessarily the next step for this project, can't stay in the aquarium forever. Now...about that dome. It will be necess...
Double-Decker Hab Tower Construction, Part 1
Coming along nicely. Lots of stuff to cover this month. too.
Near-final plan for the new aquarium setup
Subject to change, but I doubt if much will at this point. Because of the double thiccness ballast pods these will also be inter-operable with megahab, should I ever have access to a body of water I can submerge it into. The water bottle is internal this time so it can be removable, which is more du...
Dick the Hamster is No More
I feared the worst after not seeing him on cam for several days and just went to confirm it. Indeed, unfortunately, Dick has passed on from this mortal coil. An undergrounder by birth, he dwelled in the depths all the way until his final moments. He will be buried in a tasteful, fancy felt lined box...
Just dropped $150 on parts for the new double-decker habitat modules

Hamster back underwater; Hamcam back online
As you may have noticed, hamcam is back. A hamster is finally underwater again after 6 months on land. Pardon the slow process of troubleshooting and correction. Better to measure twice and cut once, in my book. Pardon the cat in the way btw, she is fascinated

Habitat Progress, Minecraft Bonus
New video, usual info in video description, I hope you like cats because by god I'm going to show you two of them
Fundraising for HamDome has begun
Basically an outdoor geodesic dome enclosure I can keep a larger population of hamsters in, without taking up indoor space. The amount I receive through Patreon currently is enough to cover many living expenses plus habitat parts, but I will need a lump sum to cover the upfront cost of the dome and ...
Replacement Habitat Module Construction, Part 1
Newest video, pardon the delay. Module coming along nicely
One of my books is being published
It's a spoopy stories anthology. As you can see it's fully funded on Indiegogo up to the hardcover stretch goal (yesss) but not yet up to the dust jackets goal (noooo). Tbh I'll be content if it simply reaches the dust jackets goal, I want this to be a polished product.You're already...
MRE Unboxing/Taste Test, Car Power Outlet Field Test, Cooling Vest Progress
More progress on various stuff. Need to fully rebuild Hampture module 2 it turns out, can't afford currently, Patreon fell by around $50 just this month. I'll save my pennies and get it done, I promise, but it may take a while.
New fitting is installed in module 2 of Hampture
I will start a 72 hour in-water test following tonight's stream. If the solution turns out to be this simple, I'll be relieved. Also glad I checked all the simple potential problems first before doing a teardown + rebuildEDIT: This solved one source of water ingress but not the other, a long...
Hambunker back online
Following some troubleshooting I replaced broken cables and while I was at it, cut a new climbing tunnel as Dick just about destroyed the old one. Everything's online and good as new for the moment.
