... hundreds of dollars in refund card transaction fees, with no recourse. Setting your capture method to manual and verifying each transaction yourself is a VERY small price to pay for warding off fraud. If these bots had been even more malicious, the charges could have been thousands.
If you're an eCommerce small business owner, please share: Reminder to set your payment capture methods to MANUAL, not automatic. My Shopify storefront was just hit with hundreds of fraudulent small orders. If I had automatically authorized each of these payments, I would be on the hook for ...
Despite having almost no experience with fursuits or sewing, I've decided to try my hand at it anyway, starting by sewing a tail for myself. This is the result! It's a little rough, but i'm definitely happy with it. Made using a foam base from @cekaycat.bsky.social.

I've got some cool stuff planned in the near future. New types of tails, and a mystery super-material that might be a game changer for fursuit part production.
Holy cow, sometimes it pays to experiment. I just switched my filament brand to Sunlu High Speed TPU and sped up my tail production by 3-4x.
I've got it running flawlessly at 16mm^3/s 125mm/s, and I can probably go even higher. Crazy.

SteamVR with an Index worked pretty flawlessly out of the box on CachyOS. Never tried doing any Unity work though, so I can't attest to how easy that will be.

Pardon my office, it is a cluster fuck in here but I FINISHED HAKKAI'S TAIL! Made on @cekaycat.bsky.social 's tiefling tail base.
My seam allowances were shoddy at best but it's like. Perfect. I'm smacking everything in the office. This rules.

Cekay's collection of stickers from the past two years or so
My first Sticker Poster is complete. Tag yourself.
I'm really looking forward to the extra R&D money so I can keep trying weird new things and make even better products.
Thank you to everyone that's supported me and what I do! I couldn't have gotten this far without you. Here's to the next chapter.
I just got a new job!
After two years of building my brand, it's time to continue my career in network engineering and systems administration.
Cekay3D won't be going anywhere, but I'll probably be pausing orders for a bit so I can focus on hitting the ground running at work.
The first official Cekay 3D booth!
First real day in a dealer's den was a success! I'm gonna lose my voice because I never talk to people constantly all day like this 😅

PETG tail belt loops printed at a 35 degree angle for strength and surface quality
Finally mastered the art of printing at an angle for better layer direction strength. My tail belt loops were strong enough already, but we over-engineer in this household.
Another international order today brought me to 16 countries I've shipped to so far, which equates to about 8% of the world. Thought that was pretty crazy.
Ween mentioned 💯💯💪😤👌
they're more betterer
