  • Continuing to work on CEIA Magnetometers storage…I managed to cut another set of yokes today. 
  • While the Shapeoko worked on the yokes, I finished (12) tabletops, ready to be painted Monday. 
  • I worked on a cart for my K40 Laser Cutter and Engraver. I picked up a dust collector from Harbor Freight for use as an exhaust fan. 
  • Rather than buying more, I decided to make due with what I had on hand. I needed 4″ duct to run from the laser cutter to the dust collector. I thought I would just go out and buy another piece of 4″ duct despite having several feet laying around the shop. I may need it later. STOP! USE WHAT YOU HAVE!
