Looks Like the Clock is Still Ticking on My Fifteen Minutes of Fame...

For those of you who didn't see Nightline last night:


I thought I had a backlog of orders to fill before.  I think it's about to get worse...

  1. As long as you can keep feeding me my fix. I've only got 4 of your gnomes, so I need more, yet. Next up is the handgunner.

  2. It is great that you are getting business. Do you have any time to yourself now? I would guess you would have to hire on some people to help you out.

  3. BZ on the gnomes, but the Etsy checkout stinks. Tried to order an unpainted flamethrower gnome for my hubby, with no luck.

    1. That's about to happen too. I just got an advance copy of the next Make magazine. I'm going to have a hard time remaining humble pretty soon.

    2. Just got my copy of Make: and saw you on the cover. I've been reading this blog for a year or so, and I thought, Hey! That's Shawn Thorsson! Congrats on the cover!

  6. I think they should be available with sound effects. Shots being fired and explosions going off randomly through the day. Also during the night, if you don't like your neighbors. :)

  7. I love your work it's amazing how much effort and time you put into it and the sound box for the Meta would definitely complete it
