Development Activities

This morning we had a big scare with our older (but wiser?) stencil printer.  We went to print and it was throwing all kinds of errors.  I was afraid another stepper motor driver went out.  The last time one went at a critical time, I had to drive to Lansing, Michigan at 6am to get another one on short notice.  I have some spares, but not of all of the different types (there are several low-voltage ones and three high-voltage (70v) ones).  

Fortunately, it was just an air line that cracked and $3 worth of tubing from the hardware store fixed it.  But we still lost around 3 hours of production.  I can see why bigger houses always have several printers (you always have a spare).  It must be nice to be able to chunk down up to $100k for just a "spare". 

We are working 24 hours a day building badges.  There's two of us - David works during the day and I am working 3rd trick. It reminds me of when I used to work 3rd at Walmart back in the day (but a lot more fun!).
