Lovely - I have in fact done something similar with a belt sander. I had the sander upside-down in a vice and was using it to sand pieces that way, and end up pressing my finger into it.

It would likely take another asteroid plus a Deccan Trapps type eruption to completely get rid of us.

Mmmmm

Covid is trying hard

See no work so can not possibly buy a K3

Smarts a bit, eh Bertwert?

I bet those clever Icelandic peeples can figure out a way to use this new volcano as an air purifier and scrub out the COVID. And maybe grill up some bacon too!

The birds are experiencing a pandemic now too.

Stick with it, Px - I get my second of the AstraZeneca at the end of April.

I feel better now than I did a few hours ago so hopefully it's going to pass quickly.
If it does become a non event I may celebrate with some ribs for supper.

Boiled ribs.

Sick people are recommended to consume soup.

And on an entirely different note, it would appear that Iceland is busy adding some new 'frosting' to the basaltic layer-cake that makes up the lovely wee island. The Fagradalsfjall volcanic field, near the town of Grindavik on the Reykjanes Peninsula, has begun spouting ash and cinders into the night sky. So far no reports of flowing lava, and no imminent danger to towns or roads. As a geologist and volcano nut, my heart is thrilled to see Mum Nature in action.

Seems to be flowing pretty well now, according to Morgunblaðið. Vísindaráð varar fólk við dvöl nálægt gosstöðvunum - "scientists warn people to stay away from the eruption". No kidding...
