The excitement!!!

Yes, just when you thought that National Beaver day was the peak of excitement, this comes up. Of course you all know what I'm talking about. It was Take a Beaver to Work Day! Yes indeed. I hope you all took the opportunity to participate. Of course MMB insisted on going, so he jumped in the van and off we went. He checked out my desk, looking over some schematics for me and he took a look at my test bench. He looked over a machine I am building, and REALLY loved looking around in the controls cabinet! Next, we stopped in to see the machine shop. He loved riding the big CNC mill, but kept trying to make a lodge out of the metal cuttings. He loved the big lathe, and when he heard about another machine with teeth for cutting wood, he just HAD to check it out. That was a bit dangerous, but he tried hard to follow all of the safety rules. After a little snack, we had some work to do. MMB helped me tune a power supply for an ion beam gun, and did a fine job. The guy who runs the system was very impressed! MMB wanted to try his hand at running one of these systems, so we let him. That's him at the keyboard. But as I'm sure you know, MMB is both very curious and just a bit mischevious and all I had to do was to turn my back for a second before he was off getting into things. He is fearless! A few minutes later, I found him checking out the phone system. If you look closely at the center of this photo, you'll see MMB about to pull a lever. Good thing I caught him when I did, that lever is the main breaker for the entire plant! Once I caught him about to get into this stuff, I decided that it was time to keep him close by and go meet a few of my coworkers. So we dropped in on a few of them, who were all thrilled to make his aquaintance! I can only hope your TABTWD was as great as ours!! |
