Hello and welcome to the Modern Maker Podcast for Thursday April 30th, 2020, otherwise known as

Hairstyle Appreciation Day.

I think we can, which is something we can all appreciate since nobody can get a haircut right exactly how you guys doing

with that in that field I cut my own you do like you always have no I did

you've resorted to okay oh so that's why it looks that way.

Yeah, no, I'm playing.

I didn't know you cut it yourself.

It's a little choppy.

It did make me think though, right?

So when I get a haircut and, you know, I normally tell them, hey, high and tight.

I'll watch what they're doing, because in general, when anyone performs any sort of manual task,

I'm always just going to have nothing else to do.

I'll just sort of zone out and kind of watch and try to pick up on like what are some of the concepts that they're employing that allow them to do what they do.

For sure, just being observant. So the person is normally cutting my hair. They use like the raisers and I normally just get on a zero setting just to clean it all up and it just lasts longer.

So I do that, but when they get towards where the hair is longer, they'll often use a comb and instead of actually just switching out all the different clips.

Yeah, it's sort of like my version of using the speed square to guide the circular saw instead of taking the time to set up a like a an actual

track saw or something like that. Yeah my only argument in this situation is if there's

anybody that should be using Clipper guides that's you you don't know what you're doing right well no this is this is what I was thinking for an innovative new product oh I'm hype let's do this okay so what I'm thinking is I kind of really want to do this. So I've been wanting to get a 3D scanner just for like shits and giggles anyways just because I think you have a lot of fun with it. But I was thinking of like, I would get a 3D scanner I would shave my head I would scan it so

one I have the inside of my head then from there I can have a I basically can set a gradient you know you can do like an offset in illustrator Chris where you basically make a parallel line to that yeah I can do an offset from your scalp right but I can do it paper so you have like an afro go so then I can do it paper. So you have like an afro gun. So then I could do a three

dimensional offset just from the line in my head where I want the fade to start to go.

Dang. So it'll be a tape. and then I'll print it as like almost like a three-dimensional.

Exactly, but even finer.
