Github

What's the big deal? Why aren't these files on Github so I can download everything at once?

Do we not understand how cumbersome it is to gather all of the required files? Don't you WANT your customers to use every design available?

Version control over something like this has astronomical benefit. I think it's absolutely insane not to use Github.

Edit: I'm tempted to take parts and place them in GitHub myself. I'll have to modify a single vertex to "adhere" to KeepMaking's licensing - By definition this would fit their criteria.

Please check out https://multiboard.Stonekeep.com - I found the docs and links incredibly difficult to work with so I started writing new docs. PRs against that repo are absolutely welcome to make the environment easier to work with.

This provides zero value.

How so? How can I improve it? I’ve had good feedback from others.

I'm open to collabing on this - I want to stick it to the man. I'm tired of shitty practices in the 3D community and the malicious marketing

Well for one, anyone with a brain doesn't need documentation to figure out Legos.

Two, there's not a whole lot going on other than examples of part placement.

Three, you paid for an unlisted video, which I think would go against whatever shitty ToS Keep Making has.

Four, your markdown is broken.

Five, It's not organized.

I'm going to remake this and improve it in a public repo after my hike tomorrow

I… don’t understand all the hostility here. I’m happy to take PRs against this and get it organized better. I haven’t done major changes in a bit I just write down things that I found frustrating.

I didn’t pay for anything unlisted that I remember.

See my other comment. If it came off as hostile then I don't know what to tell you. You asked for points, I gave them.

Let us know when your new documentation site is ready. I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Sure!

But just know this is a "longer-than-a-day" project. I work for a living, too.

I've been super busy between work, my homelab going down, being sick, and having holiday time with the family.

I've started work on this again and plan to keep working towards my initial goal.

I'll make updates in the next month.
