Day 2284

 I woke up at 7:30 and played games for quite a while.  It's another cold day, but a little warmer - all the way to 37.  When the games were done I got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After a little surfing I got out the stuff to work on the Ryft.

The work started out well.  I selected a smaller pinion and got it installed.  It meshes very well.  Then I began to install the servo.  That didn't go well.  The kit's servo savor wouldn't go on either the high power servo I purchased or the stock one.  I tried pressing it on with a C clamp.  All I accomplished was killing $40 worth of servos.  I put the stuff away and hit Amazon.

I ordered another servo.  I also found a kit from Axial that contained the servo parts.  It has additional parts that should make it fit the new servo.  I sure hope so.  I was really disappointed that I couldn't ake more progress on the Ryft.

After ordering the stuff i took out the garbage and brought in a couple of packages.  Then I had a sandwich for a really late lunch.  After that I started watching documentary videos on Youtube.  I spent the rest of the afternoon and evening doing that.

A note on my eye.  I can no longer see the bubble.  It "disappeared" during the day.  I bet it's like the left eye, just "below" (actually above) my field of vision now.  I definitely have a new crop of floaters though.  I hope they die down.
