• BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    Adventures in home rolling

    Looking awesome @jtriddle ! Even though I have a mold, I still roll in newspaper when I want something in a different size. Learning with paper first seems to lend some flexibility. Enjoy the journey!
