Second attempt at casting a neck ring for my aluminium Dalek was a failure. This metal casting malarkey is bloody hard work!
It will probably be a while before the neck ring video is done as I've tried casting one twice now and it needs a bit of a rethink, so this is a compromise in the meantime.

Just a quick video of making dome light covers.
In actual fact this took a few hours as it needed several layers and a fair bit of filing afterwards.

Jammed the camera and PCB inside the aluminium eye ball just about but I think it still needs a bit of work…

As a Software Team Lead, this is a quick rant about putting the phrase 'C/C++' on your C.V./resume, based on my experiences of recruiting over the past couple of years.
TL:DW - When applying for a C++ role, if you put 'C/C++' on your CV and you are a C++ programmer you are selling yourself short. If you put 'C/C++' on your CV and you don't know idiomatic C++ you are wasting everyone's time. Better to be upfront about it and focus on selling your other skills.
Some decent C++ books/resources that I've personally bought and read:
Scott Meyers - Effective C++ (there are more in the series)
https://amzn.to/2EhKFFL
Herb Sutter - Exceptional C++
https://amzn.to/2YVnPgr
'Gang of Four' - Design Patterns: Elements of Re-usable Object-Oriented Software
