    Initially an ADF firefighter. I then gained a Bachelors of Degree in Industrial design at Curtin University. for years after that I became a landscaper and mixed design and landscaping together and became a landscape designer. I then after a lot of experience filled the roll of landscape Architect. I have been doing physical work to keep fit after a long illness. My aspirations are to work part time in Archvis.

    • I thought I would share this good news

      For the last few years I have been fighting a few cancers and open heart surgery. due to this my savings are all gone. I could not even buy SU 2025, so I was working with 2017. I got a very well paying job in the bush. I saw the CEO bullying everyone. I am very sure he has a mental condition. He would on occasion make some of his female employees cry and I saw the smirk on his face when he did so. The last time he did it at a meeting he made somebody cry. I told the 2IC and the CEO that they ruled by nothing but fear and called them bullies to there face, well that surely hit a nerve and I lost my job. Anyway I left that very remote town. with little savings and using my last money to keep a roof over my learning about employment law to take action against the CEO who is very 'Lawyered up' I spent my time with no income to get my satisfaction for myself and other employees. I was broke but found a Lawyer to fight a no win no fee contract. I must have spent about 400 hours over about 2 months I was quite depressed but I had a mission.
      when I was a youngster I was a specialist Firefighter/ Engineer for 8 years. We used a product Called AFFF or aqueous film forming foam every day, It had a chemical in it called PFAS (the forever chemical). We used this as a detergent in a squeezy bottle in the fire station kitchen and to wash our clothes as well. They found out about 10 years ago that the chemical (PFAS) has a very serious things to humans. It is a carcinogen and causes high blood pressure. In the past 7 years I have had 2 heart attacks one requiring open heart surgery one stroke and 3 cancers.

      I started to make a claim it has taken 18 months as they are dealing with public money
      Anyway here is the good news............After all that, today I got a phone call from my advocate saying that all my claims have been accepted and I will get a fortnightly payment all my doctors fees will be paid as will my Taxi fares and medicinal costs. This will include a lump some payment as well also tax free. My life has changed overnight. I can,t explained how I feel this evening. I feel like I have won the lotto after being not far from being homeless. Sorry if this is too off subject but I had to share some good newsπŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘ πŸ‘

    • Japanese Palace render

      Had a medical procedure so have not used sketchup for a while so I got back on the horse today. Was a bit rusty. I did this referencing an image from jamzVIEW But put my own take on it. Building model was from 3D warehouse by Desired Space that have high quality models and are recommended. Sketchuo plus TMImage4.jpg

      Stay strong, brother. Talk often as you can, PM's available.

      It sounds worse than it is mate, I am able, and going on an extended holiday to Moscow and Thailand to do a bit of diving. All my ailments have been treated very well. I am expecting a large 6 figure compensation payout in 5 days. So could be a lot worseπŸ‘

    • Any Australians on this site ?

      Hi Guys I have not been very active on this site as I have been unwell. As an Australian member of the Australian Armies engineer emergency response squadron I and others were exposed to a chemical called PFAS (the forever chemical) in industrial quantities. It is now known to cause many serious issues. I myself have had 3 cancers, 2 heart attacks. and a stroke amongst other conditions there is an E petition on the subject of PFAS exposure .I do not know how many Aussies are on this sight (besides Box) But I thought I would post a link to the Petition If you would consider signing it if you are an Australian citizen.

      Thanks

    • Question about stable diffusion in sketchup

      Hi Guys I have not used sketchup in a long while. I have a project with is a large park pavilion with very complex materials and patterns. As I said it is very complex. I have attached the materials pallet. I have 3 approaches and sone questions

      Could stable difusion be of any benefit and how could I control the materials if it was a usable method

      I was thinking of doing the tiles with geometry and stick them on the face

      Try to produce the materials myself but I have limitations of the resolution

    • Genius building system

      Hi guys I posted because I know there are many "Makers' here. I love this idea.
      https://www.youtube.com/shorts/0jpt_lSqRhw

      It is an extremely cheap and can be built with very few skills. What excites me is that it is obviosley CNC manufactured so could also be manufactured with recycled with extruded plastic waste ...Win,WIN. For instance it could make plastic recycling for instance in India shelters could be built from waste plastic and at the end of life the house itself could be recycled to make mores houses. What a game changer this could be.
