Pivot

Wednesdays kind of suck for the same reason as Mondays. I didn't get home until quarter to eight so my working hours were diminished. Otherwise, with things coming along I was able to get a good idea of what the finished kegerator would look and feel like and I didn't think it was quite right. The tap handles were quite far away even by my reach, much less anyone less than 6'. So I went back to the model and pulled them closer. To make this happen I brought the drip tray forward into the slate tiles.

As a bonus it does give a nice continuous feel to the slate and opens up the upright portion more so that the beer lines should get more cold air. It does mean that I will need to cut the tiles. I spent close to an hour slowly working through the first tile with my jig saw. The tile saw blade was good and dull by the end so I'll need another before I attempt to cut the second tile. But it served as a good proof of concept. 

My jig saw was feeling close to an overheat by the end anyway so it was a good time to call it a night.

Tomorrow is another Montreal playoff game so I will again have a reduced set of working hours. I am adjusting my goal down from finished before my wife is home on Monday to functional. Finished makes for a fine stretch goal but is slipping away.
