\t\t\t\t\t\t Happy 10\/10\/10\u00a0 everyone.. one of the the few ‘binary’ dates (only 1’s and 0’s) we’ll have this millennium. … so what ?!?!)..
\u00a0 <\/p>\n

I spent the day celebrating the pure binary nature.. either doing nothing .. or working like a nut..\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n

While\u00a0 DIane is away at a yoga training.. my instincts to do anything good for me (eat, sleep, exercise, relax, play) are about half what they usually are.. that’s all stuff we tend to do together.. Even so, I did manage to get outside some to enjoy the awesome fall weather.. <\/p>\n


<\/p>\n
I took the dogs up running in the mountains.. kinda a bummer that it’s also bow season.. the dogs wore their hunter orange.. I looked rather deer like I’m afraid. I gotta say.. walking on a fall day on these trails in the moods is among my favorite things in the world (I think it’s about number 7) <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Gabe was at a dance last night.. so I whipped up my favorite bachelor meal.. no one else would eat it.. black beans, braised seitan (wheat gluten) and an insane amput of hot sauce..\u00a0\u00a0 .. that’s the one advantage of eating alone.. you can eat stuff others wouldn’t eat. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I ended up spending yesterday doing lots of small errands.. it wasn’t until 11PM that I actually started my main project. I’m uilding a larger musical tesal coil.. It’s one of the more advanced things I’ve tried to build… hope I’m up to it. <\/p>\n

My friend Scott and his friend Aub helped me by doing some machinining of some plastic parts..job one last night was to assemble them.. Aub had done such a nice job on the machining !<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The next job was to wind about 20 feet of copper tubing through about 50 small holes. Thank goodness I had Gabe helping me hold and rotate the thing. It was a ton of work..we were sweating and cursing and laughing as we got it all done. It was about 1;30 am when we got the first part done.. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

By 2am .. it looked like this.. not bad for a nights work. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Today I did soem odd jobs around the house, took Gabe into work, went for a run, then sat down to start the next step on the tesla coil.. the secondary.. .. it means winding about a quarter mile of wire perfectly. around a 4 inch pipe.. .. I built this jig and started turnign in the beutiful fall light outside.. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It’s a long job.. this is 30 minutes of work.. and I have another 11 and a half inches to wind.. yawn.. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Around 3 I headed over to homer’s.. we’re doing some maintainance on the giant pumpkin robot for the haunted forest.. I’m giving it a radio control option.. it was nice to see the thing up close again without it’s haunted forest costume on.. It looks scary to me like this<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Homer and our friend Jim had another project going at the same time (how come none of us can do one thing at a time ?! \ud83d\ude42 .. he is tryoing to breath life into this wonderful 6 axis router he’s been been building out of stuff he baught at action.. I just happened to be there for their first test in wood. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Things actually worked.. though.. you can see by the smoke something wasn’t quite right.. turns out the bit was turning backwards.. that didn’t stop the huge machine from pusing it through the workpiece anyway.. This thing is awesome .. I’ll put in more movies as it starts to do more !<\/div>\n

<\/center>
Last stop this afternnon was to pick up Gabe and go shopping. it was a guys only food fest.. .. I’ll hilight our creatoions through\u00a0 the week.. .
<\/p>\n

Now it’s off to homework.. gabe’s and mine.. More tomorrow<\/p>\n
