A few crops of the Cassius photos. Like a dummy, I left the Nikon at home this morning and only had my cell phone camera with me during our transfer.
This relatively ancient Leco Carbon - Sulfur Analyzer had a problem with this power supply that is deep in the bowels of the instrument. Once I got it extracted we called their tech support to ask if it could be safely powered up for troubleshooting on the bench. They said, "Oh, yeah." Wrong! It can be powered up safely but instrument interlocks prevent feeds to the board I wanted to troubleshoot. Three hours' work yesterday, an overnight shipment of a new card, and an hour's work this morning and they are ready to run samples this afternoon. Ta Daaaaa!
A cell phone cam is handy when you want to remember just how that thing came apart.
I decided to take an afternoon nap after a bit of reading. Well, you don't take a nap without little Faith by your side now do you? I happened to have the cell phone camera handy. Lulu and Faith are Southern States Rescued Rottweilers ( http://www.southernstatesrescuedrottweilers.org/ ) girls.
Tex Hangs the High-Intensity Shop Light
The lab has begun a program to replace each failed sodium vapor light fixture with new, more efficient high-intensity fluorescent fixtures. I modified the new fixtures and Tex hung them in the forty-foot high bay of the fabrication shop.

Whoa! Less than Three Bucks Per Gallon!
As Janis Joplin used to say, you better get it while you can.
The antique temperature controller is gone from the kiln in the lab. Of course the kiln itself has a few years on it. Duncan quit building them in 1996.

The New Fused Disconnect Goes Here
We needed 220 v. 3Ø at 60 amps power for the new Milltronics milling machine and, as luck would have it, this feed with its available 100 amps had been disconnected years ago when an old machine was sent to salvage.

My Birthday 'Cake', a Blackberry Cobbler
The wait staff at the local Cracker Barrel and half the patrons sang to me too. It was embarrassing. A big THANK YOU to everybody who sent me birthday wishes. I keep telling people that I'm only 39 (and some few months). Anyway, here is last night's birthday 'cake' shot with a cell phone. Some doddering old fool forgot to bring the good camera.
