2024 was easily the worst year of my life and a bit of that misery followed me into 2025. Fortunately, it's starting to taper off now. What this means for PR is that I'll be actively working on the site again. Posts will be a regular thing again, but I should point...

Begin (2024)
2023 ended weirdly abruptly for me, but I got the shot in the arm I needed in order to hit the ground running in 2024. This year's going to be absolutely crazy, but for me personally, I feel my worst years are finally behind me. I'm ready to stop drowning in a sea of...
Quick Update
This is a general update and not project specific. To start, I've been pretty sick the last couple of weeks. That nuked almost every end-of-the-year plan and goal I had for 2023, including the Yamato project. Even as I write this, I'm only just 'recovering.' There's...
Cosmo Falcon Spotted (Yamato WIP)
Okay so the Cosmo Messers aren't 100% compatible with the Yamato, so I wanted to modify one to be close to spec. I somehow wound up making a full-blown Cosmo Falcon. There I go, makin' replicas again I also did some side by side comparisons on an old request and Good...
Yamato Progress
Oh my goodness ... well, things may have slowed down exponentially compared to the first 24 hours of working on this thing, but that doesn't mean there hasn't been major progress. Check this out. The exterior is nearly finished (minus coloring) The catapults work...
Space Engineers: Space Battleship Yamato
Uh ... yeah, I'm not sure why I started making this yesterday. I'll do 'inspired' builds, but I never attempt actual replicas. For some perspective, this is sixteen hours of work crammed into about a day and a half. It took me a year to get the Admiral Hipper slapped...
Under Klang’s Watchful Gaze
Nothing major to report just yet, but I’m trying something extremely risky with merge blocks in my carousel landing plates.
As useful as the magnetic plates have been, landing with those is never going to be quite precise enough for rapid launch and retrieval. More importantly, I can’t blueprint the planes along with the ship unless they’re docked to it through either connectors or merge blocks. Since connectors are too thick for this, I’ve got to see if merge blocks will do the trick.

I’ve already had several close calls with random instabilities: from random shaking of the gate hinges to my avatar being dimensionally catapulted out of the ship and glitched all over the place. Still, if I can get this to work around 90% of the time it should be worth the occasional Klang.
Maybe.
On second thought, if the merge blocks don’t work out, I could try an unconveyored setup with connectors. That might give me just enough room to fit the planes and still be vertically symmetrical. We’ll see, but I’m going to gamble with the merge blocks first.
