Just wanted to jump on here and share some fun snippets of what’s been going on at MetMo HQ!
We had quite a few people asking for wooden tips for specialist jobs working with softer components. This was our first attempt at prototyping the tip by hand aaand… @Sean_MetMo didn’t get very far before concluding that the whole thing was way too small to be made from wood. The holes needed for the screws and fasteners significantly weakened the whole thing to a point where it was just breaking out and crumbling… maybe one to revisit in the future.
Our word of the week last week was piccadillo. What’s one of those, you might ask? @James_MetMo was convinced it was a musical instrument, which in fact turned out to be the Hurdy Gurdy (see image below).
Here’s a look at the chaotic bloopers from our ceramic tip testing session. If you’ve watched the full video, you’ll notice that these clips are actually all included, so now you won’t be able to unsee them if you watch it again
