i have a fine layer of brass dust on my shirt. this is awesome. i am in love with the metal shop. i actually got all disappointed when i finished my part and had to clean up and leave. i want to spend hours and hours in there cutting and turning and milling and doing things to metal things that i have never been able to do before. highly entertaining.

i need to come up with a term project sometime soon. perhaps i'll work on my logbook tonight.
