#Tinktober the next 10 Days

/ Sarah Collins / Leave a comment

This year Tinkercad is hosting a #tinktober event to provide design prompts to their tinkers. Here are the designs I have created for days 11 through 20. Not all days have designs.

Day 17: Cemetary – Click the link to read the tombstones.

Day 15: Apples – The Apple Store sells all things apple.

Day 14: Skeleton – The skeleton come up from out of the grave to witness the solar eclipse on October 14. He protected his eye sockets by wearing appropriate black out glasses.

Day 13: Friday the 13th – When I think of Friday the 13th, I do not think of the scary movie, I think of my sister who was born on Friday the 13th.

Day 11: Pet Costume – last year I created a fish in Tinkercad. This year I created a pet costume for the fish.

The Texas Renaissance Festival kicked off it’s 41st year and I was there on opening day with thousands of other attendees and performers.

Note: If you enter the Festival by yourself, you are not accosted to by the Festival photographers to have your picture taken. But, if you are dressed in costume you are asked politely by attendees to have your photo taken.

All the shows I attended was very entertaining.  The performance by the Queen’s Guards was one of the best.

We must protect the Queen!

The Joisting show was entertaining, but the funniest part was at the end of the show where the ring leader’s horse threw him and after a short attempt to calm the horse, the horse ran out of the ring following the other horses.

We cheered for England!

When there is a Doctor Who reference on the side of the haunted house, it is a must see.
