and some say lectures are boring
Today has been a day of many rings, or at least the start of many rings. Lots of good progress, although it does now seem to be about 4:30 in the morning and I have an errand or two to do yet...
There's a terrific side effect of making rings. It is a type of working meditation for me. Many ideas get created and/or processed. Today was a bit odd, in that I tried something new: MIT's open courseware. It has been on my list to put myself through these, primarily in the Electrical Engineering area. While I couldn't always pay complete attention to it while working the lathe, it felt like an introduction to the class, and lets me soak it in, albeit a bit peripherally. I'm definitely left with the feeling I still want to run through the classes. There are some projects that need to be created, that I need more info for. Yes, folks, I'm ready to make myself flashcards. Maxwell's equation, Ohm's law...
...and hey, boring out the inside of rings is called that for a reason. Need to do something to keep the noggin' from being filled with Jello.®
I did not, however, get the website images updated. This will come.
First, a bit of sleep.
'nite.
