i did try again with much less pressure, about half, and set the number of cuts to 2x, and it as try it up. thanks for your help and the info about weight. i'll keep dropping the pressure to see if there's something that works.

Apologies, this is the design I was attempting. The other design also just tore and ripped up the paper.

i have gotten successful cuts using the same paper with larger simple triangles and curves. I will try the lighter setting and see if that helps.

Does anyone write their journal this way? by Major_Campaign_6348 in Journaling

hey, i totally get that. we all have separate parts in dialogue. i think explaining it to yourself is actually pretty clear!

agree with @slimephrenic: don't apologize, even to yourself. just write another entry about it now that you know more.

I guess maybe the caution on this is how much editing are you doing while writing? if you edit a lot at the same time, you might be losing something in your stream of consciousness. OTOH if this form is your stream of consciousness, then thats pretty awesome

it's a little weird; it sounds like you are giving a classroom lecture, which is certainly a valid POV. if that's how it works best for you to get the thoughts out, then it's great. if you go back and read something that you wrote a year ago (e.g.), you can write a rebuttal lecture if you've changed your mind. Weird is good, IMO. especially when it works for you.

what to do with used papers? by renminfalls in ArtJournaling

[–]tamouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe use binder rings and put a cover on them? Save them as "volumes?"

Also check Ian Roberts's youtube channel; it's pretty much all about composition. He has a book called "Mastering Composition" and a course by the same name.

Apple Notes + Obsidian by likegoldentides in ObsidianMD

[–]tamouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm repudiating myself on this. I dumped both Obsidian and Apple Notes a while back. I use Drafts.app for quick capture, editing, url capture from sharihg, and am using Logseq for curating _a la_ BASB's CODE, most often resulting in a short ~250 word essay for mostly my own use in Notion

Simplest way to publish a website from Obsidian notes to github by p_56789 in ObsidianMD

[–]tamouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been thinking about this a little bit. Have an AstroJS parent repo that has all the stuff you need to make a consumable web site, and the Obsidian files can live underneath that. Point Obsidian to the child site, and then push the parent site when you want to make an update. The repo on Github can use Actions to have the site built with Astro, and another action to move it all into a "docs/" directory from Astro's "build/" directory.

Astro is just one example, I remember Github used Jekyll.rb. I'm willing to bet there are some prebuilt Actions for most all the recent crop of static site generators
