Projects

Smelting work is continuing

From Billy - "We can work with metals up to the melting points of aluminium. Luke experimented with brass/copper with mixed results, but we don't really have the facilities for bronze-working or iron working yet. We can soften iron to the point of being workable, but it's all a work in progress/learning experience for us."

Jim's Turing machine got a mention on the New Scientist video blog and thence Engadget.
