Tinker Tuesday for September 9, 2025

This thread is for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers.

Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.

If you want to be pinged with a reminder asking about your project, let me know, and I'll harass you each week until you cancel the service

Honestly the easiest way to get started is to go on CivitAI, find something similar to what you want, and then start playing with the knobs and dials from there. Many images have attached metadata including ComfyUI workflows. This gives you at least a known-good configuration to fall back on when something goes wrong.

The /g/ board on 4chan also has a long running Local Diffusion General which has a bunch of guides and resources for getting started.

One thing to note though is that ComfyUI is a bit of a security nightmare. Custom nodes are basically just python scripts downloaded and run from the internet with little to no security screening by the maintainers. If you're experimenting with this on a computer with sensitive information, I'd recommend not installing random custom nodes with two stars on GitHub.
