Running a Tipper
The last half of the day at work I had to run a tipper. It is pictured to the right. Ours does not have the clear cabinet on it. It puts the actuator on the can. The product we were running is pictured below.
Finished
I finished a project for my bosses boss today that I have been working on for about three weeks now. I was waiting on a call for pricing so I could fill out the requisition and get a purchase order number. The call came today while I was working on the line, more about that later. I took the call got the info I needed and went back to work on the line. At the end of the day I called the guy back with the info he needed he said the items will be here some time next week. I am glad to have that project done.

I am glad he created it. It is very tasty.
