martymcguire[m] sunday might be the wrong time to start a microformats discussion, but here goes!
#
martymcguire[m] i'd like to post about 3d printing projects on my own site, to "own my makes" or "own my things", as it were.
#
martymcguire[m] first up i'd like to "own my makes" - basically posting photos of the result of completing a project that is another person's design. here's a silo example from thingiverse:
#
martymcguire[m] https://www.thingiverse.com/make:306666
#
martymcguire[m] for a post on my own site, i am thinking that the minimum post is an h-entry with u-photo/u-featured, and u-in-reply-to that points to the url of the original "thing" page which contains their source files for 3d printing.
#
martymcguire[m] but i could also see a next step, including an embedded h-product with name, url, and embedded brand (with the author's information)
#
martymcguire[m] that got me thinking about how to represent other types of "thing" posts. it might work to have my "thing" pages be an h-product at the top level, with general information about the thing, photos, etc being handled w/ the usual properties.
#
martymcguire[m] and the individual design files that need to be printed could be embedded h-items, with photo, name, and link to the file for printing.

sknebel (as in, this thing described here is my version of this file/these instructions on this other page
#
martymcguire[m] i guess it doesn't matter what i call it until something out there consumes it?
