Continuing to make some good progress. Thank you @mrdowden.bsky.social for the help and for reminding me that we have chain mail gloves for preventing further damage to my fingers when playing with sharp objects.

Note to self, impaling your finger with a freshly sharpened chisel is a bad idea. Coding next week is gonna suck.
On the flip side, build for the hood to exhaust the 3D printer fumes outside is progressing nicely.
