We worked on it for 6 hours and have the printer about 60% done ... so many steps with so many small parts. I think we have the frame done, all the motors are in, so we still need to add some of the circuit boards, the power supply, then the casing around them. Then flash the chips, and we should be good to print.

Will finish it next Saturday .. was a fun project to work on .. though I wish one of the two of us had smaller fingers, would have made it easier :)
 
Done this in the rant thread before, doing it a little here now.

Me: OK, I can make hamburgers and french fries.
Friend: I don't like french fries from frozen.
Me: You eat them literally all the time at fast food restaurants.
Friend: That's different. I don't like them in an oven.
Me: OK, why?
Friend: They're too dry.
Me: So I'll make them fresh.
Friend: How do you make french fries fresh?
Me: Cut a potato up and bake it.
Friend: No need to be a smartass.
Me: ????????

A typical day at work.

Me: Good morning!
Colleague (mumbling towards the screen): Morning.
*30 Minutes pass*
Colleague (mumbling towards the screen): Do this please.
Me: Done.
*30 minutes pass*
Me: What does this mean?
Colleague (mumbling towards the screen): A moment please. (turns over) You do this and that (cue elliptic mumblings).
Me: OK...
*10 minutes pass*
Me: Can you say again what you meant by [elliptic mumbling]?
Colleague: What do you think?
Me: Probably this. Right?
Colleague: Mhm.
*30 minutes pass*
Me: I'll go for a break.
*1 hour passes*
Colleague (mumbling towards the screen): Did you do this?
Me: Yes, two hours ago.
*1 hour passes*
Me: I'll go for lunch.
*2 hours pass*
Colleague (mumbling towards the screen): I sent you an email.
Me: Already done.
Colleague (mumbling towards the screen): Did you consider the specifications in the second paragraph?
Me: Yes.
*3 hours pass*
Colleague: See you tomorrow.
Me: Have a good one!

I wonder when I last exchanged more than 100 words with someone in the office in one day. If ever.
