TOG Hackerspace members standing behind an amateur radio display stand at the IRTS AGM weekend in Shannon, with radios, banners, flyers, and a colourful costumed attendee beside them.

Thanks to the Limerick and Clare Amateur Radio Club for a brilliant weekend in Shannon for the @irts.bsky.social 93rd AGM weekend.

We had a great time meeting people, chatting radio, showing off some of what we get up to in TOG.

@furaffinity.net when are we getting the option to include amateur radio callsigns as contact info?

Since FurAffinity does not allow changing your username (probably due to a technical limitation), I have created a new account at www.furaffinity.net/user/slipwolff

The group photo from Ainmhícon 2026 with all of the fursuiters with the Seal Rescue Ireland banner at the front held by the Seal Rescue Ireland Mascot and Charity Head

(1/4) It's been so rewarding being the Head of Charity at @ainmhicon.ie. I never imagined we'd manage to raise over €12,500 for Seal Rescue Ireland in our first year! They have been so amazing with their level of cooperation during the event and months leading to the convention-

So when I went to @ainmhicon.ie this year I did not expect to become a custard cult leader! Over the weekend I handed out 24 packs of custard, some of them signed… and to top it off! My custard badge made at scotia this year sold at the charity auction for €165!!

#furry #irishfurs #ainmhicon

Thank you all so much for an amazing first year

We're fully spent, but we hope you'll join us again next year for Ainmhícon: Rising Roots

So I've finally folded and created a twitter account: x.com/SlipWolffdot...
Unfortunately @SlipWolff was taken :P

We are heading to Shannon on 18 & 19 April for the IRTS AGM Weekend.
We’ll have a table at the Sunday rally showing off some projects from the hackerspace, and a few of us are hoping to try our first Bunkers on the Air activation on Fri evening at B/EI-0151 and B/EI-0152.

Yesterday we were out in Ticknock Forest, IE-0116 for our Easter Monday POTA activation.
Great to get EI0TOG on the air, make plenty of contacts, and enjoy a good day out in the Mountains.
Thanks to Declan EI9HQ, Paraic EI2LH, Tomasz EI3106 & Jeffrey EI7IRB for taking part.

Also since I ran out of characters on the main post, quick shout-out to Paraic (EI2LH) and Declan (EI9HQ) who were also present at the activation

Today I did a POTA activation with @togdublin.bsky.social on the 40m and 20m bands in Ticknock Forest. Jeffrey (EI7IRB) led the activation using the club callsign EI0TOG. We have also taken part in the IRTS 70cm and 2m County Contests.

TOG Hackerspace is heading to Ticknock Forest for a POTA activation on Easter Monday, 6 April.
We’ll be on air as EI0TOG, with EI7IRB leading the activation. Come along in person or listen out for us on the bands.

TOG Hackerspace is at Dublin Comic Con this weekend. Come say hello at our stand and check out some of the projects, retro gear, and maker fun we’ve brought along.

#TOG #DublinComicCon #Makers #Dublin

Called in today with @togdublin.bsky.social into the Sunday IRTS news while at Dublin Comic Con.

Blue, green and white fursuit head on a wooden chair looking into the camera.

So to continue with the head: thank you @ladynightlight.bsky.social for providing me with feedback regarding the eyes. I'll be totally honest, adding eyeliner made them look much better. #furry #fursuit #fursuitMaking

Blue, green and white fursuit head with white and pink handpaws to the left of it lying on a stack of coloured faux fur fabric.

So the fursuit head, after 2 months of work (which mostly was waiting for materials to ship), it is finally finished. Not the prettiest suit out there but I love it as a first attempt suit. Planning on starting a bodysuit soon to have a complete set done.
#furry #fursuit #fursuitMaking

Got the PC CD edition still. It still fully works and plays great

That's my handpaw. It was fun making them ❤️

White fluffy costume paw with black claws lies on a blue drawstring bag on a workshop table; scissors and a remote control sit nearby.

White fluffy costume paw turned over to show soft pink paw pads on the underside, resting on a blue drawstring bag on a workshop table with scissors nearby.

Look what was on the table at this week’s Tuesday Open Night — a giant fluffy paw being sewn up, complete with toe beans and claws 🐾

That’s the vibe at TOG: bring your project (craft, cosplay, electronics, repairs, whatever), grab a bit of space, and get stuck in with good folks around you.

One part of my fursuit is done, time to finish the head. Plan to have it done by Ainmhícon in April. Happily used patterns by @skyehighstudios.com #furry #fursuit #fursuitMaking

Hey everyone, Zuki here! I hope everyone had a fantastic time last weekend at FNNY 2026! I wanted to thank everyone for their support and attendance, and making it an amazing, memorable night once again 🎉

I'll be totally honest, sticking jumpers onto the ESP32 would suffice, but I've wanted an excuse to practice soldering

Eh good enough for experimenting
