I enjoy making salt cylinders

kareinaI just finished making another couple of salt cylinders and am now completely ready to run my next experiment. I really enjoy the process of making these things--everything from measuring the salt to pressing it into shape to sanding them down to make them fit. I think I just like making stuff.
I did, however, opt to only make two this time. When he taught me to make them my boss suggested that I make 5 to 10 at a time, so that I wouldn't have to do them again. Last time I did three of them. Of those three I used one, a colleague of mine used one, and the third one broke. This time I just made the one I need and a spare. Still, an hour's work on a Saturday will help keep my average number of hours worked for the month in a reasonable range...
Now I should go home and get some sleep.
