will not give up and I will not leave.
I have a lot of good news I want to share, and just a tiny bit of bad news.
Let’s start with the good.
I am very… happy that there are people in my circle who helped me and can help me.
I bought a new printer, and the printing process has been going really well. I’m waiting for one of the parts to finish printing so I can fully appreciate the scale of my happiness.
The printer has a very large build plate, and now I can print all the parts for a head, including an entire head, at once!
In the second photo, you can see the printing progress on the new printer. From the appearance alone, I can immediately say that everything looks absolutely great!
As an example of bad printing, the third photo shows poor layer adhesion, banding, and surface unevenness.
On the previous printer, all recent bases were thrown away because they can’t be used.

One of my fellow maker friends came over and helped me set up the printer, gave me a lot of useful printing advice, and overall we had a nice chat — it really boosted my morale!
In addition to the printer, I also bought a filament dryer. With it, the print quality will be at the highest level.
I have finally purchased a professional fur clipping machine with a metal blade. I had been using very cheap clippers all the time, which often caused problems when trimming fur… Frequent bald spots, stripes from uneven trimming, blades getting stuck in the fur, and sometimes being completely unable to trim the fur at all.
Also, because cheap clippers use ceramic blades, they dull quickly and cut poorly.
The new clipper cuts fur of any density, does so evenly, and it’s practically impossible to leave a bald spot with it.
On top of that, the blades can be sharpened independently, so there’s no need to buy new ones every time…

I believe all these upgrades will take the quality of my work to a new level, and I hope to work faster and with better quality, without a ton of problems and breakdowns.
Bad news:
The printer was purchased on credit, and starting in January I’ll need to pay 15k rubles every month. According to my calculations, I should manage, but I also still need to pay the same amount on my credit card every month, and all of this causes me intense anxiety.
However, I believe I’ll be able to work faster now, since all my equipment issues have been resolved. I’m also still waiting for the authorities to process the change of my insurance policy from the Kaluga region to Moscow. Until they do, I can’t receive free medical care because I’m unable to register with a local clinic. I hope to resolve this issue before the New Year so that afterward I can start seeing doctors and actively begin taking care of my health.
I’ll try to share updates more often. For now, I’m actively printing new orders and finishing up older ones.

Should I post a couple of my new works and other processes from all the long time I haven’t updated Telegram? 🦝

The finished shark I made quite a while ago, just never posted anything about it here...
It survived two moves during the process. There’s a lot I’d do differently now, but I’ll just take some of this experience into account for the future.

Fox!
I really enjoyed working on him — he's one of my favorite suits, and I was even a little sad to give him up...
The set includes magnetic eyelids, tongues with Velcro, and a collar lined on the inside.

The customer's original character.
These photos are from them, by the way...
I really enjoyed working with this little guy!
There were a lot of things I tried for the first time with this project... For example, I'd never made droopy ears and horns out of fleece before...
But I won’t be making horns out of fleece again—it was the biggest challenge and headache for me, and personally, I prefer working with plastic for many reasons anyway...
Oh well, as they say, it's never too late to try something new and learn along the way!
I’ll be updating my channel periodically and sharing more work-in-progress content...
All these orders were completed at different times while I wasn’t posting anything here.
Everything’s fine with me now.
