Got some testing gold to process.

So I'm researching scalable irrigation drip systems. I have enough to do and a horticulturist (owner) is in charge of that stuff. I think he wants me more involved.
Not a single spell check underlined word !!!!!

My brother in laws ... or is it brothers in law ? said it's turkey time ! Regulations state shotgun no larger then a 10 gauge. Well glad dumb ass state of Oregon said that !!! WTF is larger then a 10 gauge anyway ? I don't have anything like that, my friend is a gunsmith I'll ask him just to see what he has seen. I wish we could hunt here with a crossbow, I really want one and have for a while.

Well I guess that rules out using this shotgun....

This is called the "Punt Gun" it's a 2 gauge shotgun from late 19th xentury.

2 Gauge Shotgun: The Punt Gun is the World’s Largest Scattergun

The 2 gauge shotgun, also known as a punt gun, is the largest hunting shotgun in the world. These firearms were common in the late 19th Century, but they’ve fallen into obscurity over the last 100 years. Take a closer look at this incredible piece of history.(image source; Wikipedia) History Of...

Got a updated guidance system for the ship.
But I'm still not convinced that course taken was correct.
So I'll scrap it out for gold and silver content.
Gyros are really weird to take apart.

Drip systems can be very efficient, providing the person operating it knows
what the hell they are doing.

Critical things to watch for are Ph and PPM, both of which can change
on their own at times. Also, you'll need to insure the water temp is appropriate.
Be sure and soak your media (rockwool, expanded clay pellets, etc) well so that it
also is at the right Ph. I'm sure you already have an HVAC system to manage
the air temp. and humidity, so that should be OK.

The downside? If something goes wrong, you can lose your whole crop if
it's not quickly corrected. There are plenty of (expensive) digital monitoring
systems available, and I'd suggest for your purposes that one is installed to
keep an eye on things.

Just some suggestions from someone who's been there and done that a few times.
