  • Kids nowadays honestly have no idea how much work it was to get a photo then compared to now. We had to go out, buy a roll of film with like 24 photos on it, take the photos without having a clue what they looked like, and knowing we only had a limited amount, then we mailed them off and waited like a week for them to come back. If someone was blinking or your dumbass kid (me) was pulling a stupid face then you were stuck with it.








  • I can’t answer everything because I don’t make models myself, but don’t buy a 3D printer. Getting it set up and calibrated takes ages, as well as the learning curve. Find a service online, you send them your file and they print it and send it back. PLA is the most common material for printing and I expect it would be fine here, I haven’t really used anything else and I have no problems. You can just make the plastic thicker to make it stronger.

    The painting part should be fine but you’ll probably have to use a primer. Get a few prints so you can make mistakes.

    Just find an online printing service and they should be able to answer a lot of your questions.





  • This can’t feasibly be done over the internet. An IP address must be unique as that’s how it finds it out of billions of other devices. There are situations where the same IP can route to different locations but that’s regional and way beyond what you’re trying to achieve here. It’s how something like 8.8.8.8 works without sending all the requests to a single location.

    If your server is sending out traffic as 1.2.3.4 and then tries to send the encrypted traffic to the client at 1.2.3.4 the traffic would either be routed back to itself or the client would receive the plaintext traffic meant for the server.
