Life moves fast, but progress moves like molasses. I've been busy trying to set up the facilities still. Hanging drywall, procuring supplies, building chicken coops, etc. Still have about 8 sheets of drywall on the walls, then I have to get to the ceiling. Can't do all of the ceiling until I do the roof. Can't do the roof until I sharpen the axe. Can't sharpen the axe without fixing a hole in the bucket. Can't fix the hole in the bucket without sharpening the axe. A viscious cycle.
However! Two weeks ago there was a tiny bit of good fortune. While walking to my car on a busy street, I looked down and found a 10k gold ring that had been run over a ton of times. Most of the stones were cracked. So that was cool.
Then around the same time, I finally gave in and ordered a power supply for a Mettler AT201 scale that I purchased about four months ago now. I paid $35 for the scale because it looks like someone might have dropped a piano on it. Broke the expensive glass draft shield.
However, that can be replaced. Amazingly, I was able to find my scale standards. This is 20mg. (both immediately after walking by, and after letting the air settle for a minute) Oh, it's sitting on a piece of drywall, unsupported.
