Learning CAD For A Pinball Shadowbox
- Griffin described struggling to learn Fusion 360 for a pinball-panel LED shadowbox and found CAD constraints unintuitive at first.
- He plans to finish the model and deal with large print segmentation later once the design is complete.
Dino Knowledge Is Nuanced, Not Mythic
- Wren immersed his YouTube algorithm in dinosaur research and learned far more than he expected about T. rex and other theropods.
- He realized many dinosaur assumptions (feathers, lips, metabolism) have nuanced, evidence-based answers rather than simple myths.
Bones Reveal Soft-Tissue Clues
- Tooth wear and jaw attachment sites yield soft-tissue inferences like lips on T. rex rather than movie-style exposed teeth.
- Fossilized skin impressions and bone weathering provide specific anatomical evidence, not pure speculation.
