Tempest 3000 eh? I build Zarjaz Rotary controllers for that thing if you’re interested. ;)

Funny story actually...


Sounds like you saw my blog post elsewhere on the site about Tempest 3000, so you surely saw my rotary. I can't recall...do I have a Zarjaz? Maybe an Opal. Hmmmm. Nice game. Rotary or nothing!


How about an island, or any truly remote location on earth (or in space) that may lack broadband.


how did you get there without preparation? no one carries around a mobile phone with 0 apps, the first thing you do is download all the essentials


That’s good to see Vic writing for RS, like to see him busy.


I-odd FTW, Pro-tip it emulates thumb drives too.


What is the best way to help the project?

I’ve got an old Sprint Samsung Epic 4G slider (WiMAX, the old 4G), that would love to be a little mobile terminal...might be a little too dated though...

Anyway, this is a fantastic project and I’m eager to contribute!

Happy to read that \o/


How funny, I just started picking up some GURPS material because I wanted some RPG action that wasn’t all dungeon crawling hack n’ slash.

Between Cyberpunk, Illuminati, Atomic Horror, and a little Cthulhupunk, should be some good times; if I can get a campaign together...


Bookmarked.

Very cool, these are great modules and I will be happy to have them in my SCAD toolkit. Thank you!


I can’t believe that nobody has mentioned the Prusa FDM 3D printers are, and have always been designed in SCAD[0].

This alone has been instrumental in allowing community improvements, it’s the last “true” reprap, they run a farm of 300+ machines and iterate parts somewhat frequently.

Pretty amazing that there is one molded part on the entire machine, the spool holder.[2]

There was also some “archeology”[1] on the traditional CAD dead-ends from a specific extruder design that I found facintating.

Fantastic, thank you Bunnie & crew, well done.
