Diablo 3 on May 15, 2012

thuyla — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 22:27:24 +0000

As you know Blizzard just announced Diablo 3 will be coming out on May 15, 2012. For now you can Pre-Purchase a digital copy and ready to play whenever the servers go live. If you bought the game, you could download the game but you wouldn’t be able to play it yet. I like the fact buying a digital copy would save me time for travel and possibly lining up at store. I’m currently downloading it and 7.6 GB total for Diablo-III-8370-enUS-Installer.

I just made this little time lapse video over the past weekend using my iPhone and Frames appz with a bit of iMovie editing (adding background sound and texts). It came out pretty awesome. The LEGO Mini Modulars set (#10230) is very small and elegant.

DIY Adapt for a Wrist Strap

Here is one of my DIY home-made adapt for a wrist strap. Using 10mm width polyester strap, I slotted right in the camera body and securing with stitched black string at one end. I also added a split ring the other end for any attachment.

Skin and Strap

My Olympus E-P2 camera has its new skin and strap. Aren’t they stunning piece of art? I guess these are just for bling bling factor, but loving it. I got them from:

Gordy’s Camera Strap (wrist straps – string)
Aki-Asahi Camera Covering (Leatherette kit in #8308)

This video is the second part of my Steadicam Project. Using an old flashlight as the handle to attach the gimbal part, luckily the old Garrity LED flashlight is perfectly fit to the gimbal ball bearing. Check out my video below and enjoys.

I was impressed by WSCLATER with his DIY steadicam some time ago. Surprisingly, I have some time to make my first piece of the steadicam which is the gimbal part. As you can see below is my Youtube video with a finish assembly gimbal parts.

The parts are:

a set of Traxxas TRX-5151 universal joint
2x Bauer Lab Series ABEC 1 roller skating ball bearing
2x M6x10 screws (cut shorten)
2x bronze joiner (cut shorten)
some hot glue (glue the joiner with universal U joint)

Note: This video was captured by iPhone 4 and I can say it’s a very good pocket video camera. BTW, just ignore my finger nails and roughly skin on my hands… ehhh…
