Artificer Made is now a Blog!

That's right. It seems that the things I make and sell are a little difficult to explain sometimes with the tools that ETSY provides. But by all means please go see what I'm selling at my ETSY store Artificer Made.

That is to say, that much of what I create exists within a context that is not always apparent at first blush. That is the nature of creating ... well ... oddities and frivolities I suppose. Things that exist to satisfy the demands of a fictitious reality are just going to need more introduction.

So here's what we're going to do. The current artificers will post as often as we can about what we are building, how we are building it, and ... when it matters ... why we are building it.

I will be producing some tutorial videos whenever a good subject comes up. Feel free to send me suggestions, or questions whenever they arise.

Last but not least, we will be giving shit away. Once we have a few dedicated fans I plan on running a weekly promotion. It could be a straight up give-a-way. It could be a contest. But there will always be an interesting prize.

The prizes will be in the tradition of the fiasco artifica, abject and ruinous failure. Whenever a project fails miserably there is usually something interesting left amid the wreckage. Perhaps some bit of metal or glass that could be used as a decoration or jewelry. I don't know. I don't care. If I could have used it for something I would have so it's up to you. I have all manner of things here I can't use but are still too cool to melt for scrap.

Anyway, there's my welcome message, I hope you enjoy the show.

Artificer Made the Grade!

Steampunk Addie and her mommy over at steampunkaddie.blogspot.com have received their purchased goggles and bestowed upon me their mark of approval.


What a fun thing to say.

I'm thrilled they ... alright, Addie is a doll but she earns her personal pronoun dammit ... they liked the goggles. The reception I received has even inspired me to create another pair.

I don't know if I can keep this up. It's hard to be a filthy lecher while making dolly goggles.

But I'll try.

    You are officially Our favorite artificer. I've told Addie she better get a job if (What a I saying? Of course she does!) she wants more goggles.

    I don't suppose my half-dime is worth $180 in 2012?

    Ha. Tell you what... Next time I do a doll size item it will be something other than goggs.

    Then you won't feel guilty about buying them.

    Sure you already have goggles, but do you have a ... dunno ... pneumatic powered crossbow? ... Diving bell? ... suggestions?
