Nothing throws a wrench in plans faster than unexpected problems, be they work or personal. The past couple of months have flown by and I am frustrated by a perceived lack of  progress. I am not finished, I do have a long list of designs that did not work out and I am sure I know what will, but I have to eek the time out of a schedule that is much busier than expected.  My original plan to use reclaimed items did not pan out so new materials have been selected. Even if I go overtime I will present a final project, but going overtime will really feel like a personal failure. I will have pictures of the project by Saturday.
