June 12, 2020 Update: This week I made a little progress on the knife making experiment I started last week and some substantial progress on the novel sighting system that I am working on.  Lord willing and weather permitting, I hope to start filming some tests of the sighting system next week.  However, I'm also thinking that the second half of June and the first half of July will probably be the best time to get out and explore the backcountry this summer, so for the next month or so I may elect to shift my focus from shop work to outdoor exploration.  Earlier this year, I picked up a better camera for taking still photos, so I'm looking forward to trying it out on some of Idaho's spectacular scenery.
