Maker's Monday

Trying out a new weekly thread idea.

This would be a thread for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers. We can coordinate weekly standup type meetings if their is interest.

@ArjinFerman, @Turniper, and myself all had some initial interest.

Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.

What guitar and amp did you get? Back when I was working on learning electric guitar I ended up just buying an audio interface and using a DAW with plugins to practice. Great for getting a wide range of tones, but ultimately pretty bad for just knuckling down and practicing since you spend more time fiddling with dials than playing. Plus you're stuck playing sitting at the computer.

I'm pretty sure the Motte has some poetry aficionados (poems seem to get quoted with regularity) so you might get some feedback here if you posted.

My kids got a mini amp (in addition to a real one) for just this reason; it's so much easier to accumulate practice time in if you can grab 10 minutes here and there without having to go to the floor amp and adjust it first.
