New short just dropped: I’m cleaning up a 3D scan of the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital statue using Nomad Sculpt on iPad. Prepping it for a 9.5ft 3D print! Behind-the-scenes timelapse here:

Sometimes the smallest wins mean the most—shoutout to @MicroSwiss for going above & beyond to help solve a weird Creality issue. They didn’t have to but they did... that support meant a lot this week.

Update on the Etsy listing takedown w/ Mattel mess. We’re back, listings recreated, but this was a masterclass in how big brands crush competition through broken policies. Watch the breakdown 👇

I’m really sorry this happened to you. We’re currently battling Etsy as well—our best-selling listings were removed after a baseless trademark claim by Mattel, and Etsy refuses to review the case properly. Just submitted them today to my state AG for anti-competitive behavior. Not holding my breath
Check out today's update and the details: youtube.com/shorts/uMu4C...

Etsy is now under investigation by the Illinois Attorney General.
Mattel filed false trademark claims against M86 Toys, and Etsy blindly removed our best-selling listings without proof. They refused to investigate, so we escalated it to the AG.
Big business shouldn’t get to bully small creators.

Seven years ago, I built a custom Hot Wheels racing wall for my twin boys. Servo-controlled launches, custom track turns, and a whole lot of fun. What I didn’t know then? This was the start of a journey—one that led me to small-batch toy manufacturing and M86 Toys.
Waking up in the Midwest in March... 😑❄️
It was 70 degrees three days ago. It snowed today. It'll be 70 again in 2 days. What kind of weather rollercoaster is this?! 😂

Seems more productive than alternative programming. Thanks @meidastouch.com for showing me something comforting.
I am getting bombarded with Facebook and Instagram ads on YouTube. Is this a sign they are nervous? Are we making a dent in their business? I hope so! Blocked this ads thank you very much.
It’s all the other apps too that is also frustrating. CapCut… how is that a security risk?
TikTok, Lemon8, and CapCut are all blocked. 🤬🤬🤬
I don’t trust him!!!!
Just released a new short. I had a viewer request… The Haunted Mansion Ride Faces that follow you effect explained

It’s official… TikTok has locked me out. This is so sad.
I’m busy that day… Grass needs mowed.
Stage 4 cancer survivor here of 23 years (diagnosed at age 14). Stay strong and don’t take any day for granted. Check-ups are the hardest part of where you are at in the journey. I hope you keep getting clean scans!
This is sickening to hear as a cancer survivor of 23 years! Who didn’t go back to 1955 and fix the timeline?!
I have officially hit age 39. Wild to think about and the things I’ve gone through to reach my 39th birthday. The last 15 months have been an extreme challenge focused at me and my family. My hope is this next year the universe rights itself. #birthday #cancersurvivor #corruption #birthdaywish
This platform was born out of twitter before the purchase and I feel it to be a safe space to express myself. No platform is perfect but content responsibility is important to me which is why I am choosing to be here.
Going forward my social media presence will be here on Bluesky, YouTube and TikTok (Depending on the TikTok ban). About 3 month after the purchase of Twitter I left (standing up) and I’ve gone dark on Facebook. I tweeted projects, things I was making and building. I will reignite that passion here!
#Amazon is a joke anymore for a platform & delivery promises. Considering cutting my #amazonprime membership for both my personal & business. It’s not worth it anymore… whole bait & switch campaign. Get people to trust you & then cut quality/reliability of your service when you eliminate competition
My 2024 year defined by #Amazon… “your delivery is late”! So many shipments where delivery dates are just a joke. Prime is a joke anymore. I had one item listed as get same day (thermostat) if I ordered in 35 minutes. 4 days later I canceled because it still hasn’t arrived &the product was $20 more!
