I didn’t want to for a long time, but today I suddenly did ...
I think one of these days I'll start puttying and sanding ...

Thank you!
I also love jokes with colleagues!
Now the heat will drop and I'll start painting ....
They brought me a cat, but it seems he misses his country...

Pavel: if you like cats, dogs, and other higher animals, you have much company here on RCTW. Although this thread was "off topic," it nonetheless gained a lot of attention and was great fun! See

I am a new person, I have not yet fit into the forum, thanks for helping me adapt.
I always take into account the wishes of the elders!

Sir, you have no need to "fit in" rather, forge your own path as you are certainly doing & let us in on the journey while you do it
I see you have got your cat from down here
Visitors here get used to walking around upside-down after a short time, but us going up there ??...............we cant adapt as quickly so prefer to try and replicate our familiar environment whenever we can !!

And the most tedious process began for me - preparation for puttying ...
The surface sucks
Treated the surface with primer...
All the jambs of 3D printing came out like earthworms after the rain...
I made old-style armored shutters.
well now a pound of putty and a yard of sandpaper
That's why I don't really like 3D products.
