text. text never changes.
ascii.
well. it did become unicode.
text changes.
I'm staring at this precipice. I think. Or I'm acting like it. But I need the options laid out in front of me.
Well. There are really just a few forks.
1. Stock Cropper or no?
2. Full-in on livestock?
3. Religious life?
#3 is all devouring. And that's fine & good.
#1 could become all devouring. Will it really? I'm not sure it will. But it may.
Perhaps it's best to lay out my anxieties. A lot of them are in the realm of "will I have time to attend to everything"
1. Will I have time to juggle the farm, the new house build, and any engineering development that may come?
2. Will I be earning reasonable pay?
3. Will I find a good woman? Does she exist?
4. Do I even want communion? Do I want a woman? Do I want brotherhood? I suspect I still do. But it's hard to find that. I am really looking for nuance, not idealogically captured.
5. Am I becoming ideologically captured? Am I becoming dull?
6. Will continuing to pursue engineering force me to forsake agriculture?
7. And if I forsake (the deep study of) agriculture, will I be learning what I ought to?
8. Is the building up of engineering artifacts a waste if I cannot make the appropriate cultural shifts around me to sustain it?
9. ***What can I do that will have the greatest positive cultural impact?***
10. I haven't left myself enough time to adequately discern religious life before I shove myself into this startup-shaped funnel.
11.
Some observations
1. Engineering, however small, fixates me - I cannot wretch myself from it to ponder questions of agronomy, so it seems. I cannot do both well. The agronomy suffers. I find this shameful. I don't like this. Maybe it isn't immutable but it certainly seems like an overwhelming temptation.
2. I appreciate being near family. It is very grounding. I haven't spiraled very badly with them around. And it's not just a daily thing, I think even touch-and-go helps. In absence of a wife or religious community it is a big help.
3. I'm being avoidant of something.

Sitting in adoration
Reading ecclesiastes
"There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil"
How shall I find enjoyment in my toil?
I find enjoyment in building and designing stuff
Truly I do
And in tending livestock
*but not in driving trucks and stuff, not really*
When I consider the present moment
all I can consider is doing this stuff
engineering, that is

Need to journal
Stressed
Feeling the squeeze on stock cropper stuff
Mostly self imposed
Need to at least get this sprint of stuff kicked off
Then things get better for a while
Not done
Just a cooling
Maybe I should do some THF design to take my mind off it
Reading the doc gives anxiety
It's a commitment
Kinda
I mean I can walk away
That non-compete has a slight language issue though
I am slow to make long term commitments
I am fast to make short term commitments
Am I happy doing this?
The pace is too much right now
I want help. I could use help, if it was the right help.
Or overall this is just not the right time
Maybe
What would I do otherwise?
I need to pray and meditate more
I'm not quite pleased with my social life but it is getting somewhere tbh
It won't last though
What do I want
Let's not worry about whether I should or not let's just be blunt. Lord perfect my desires but here they are I think
I want to exercise agency
I want to be of service to my neighbor
I want to solve interesting problems
I want to design things that suck less
I don't want to drive equipment days on end
I don't want to burn out
I don't want to work 10 hour days doing design
I am fine working 6 hours days of design + 4 hours manual labor
I don't mind looking after animals
I don't want to manage plants
I want to mentor students/interns again, in my work, not as an auxiliary activity
I want to design good things
I want to be around nature
I want to live with more natural processes
I want quality leisure. What is that? Resting with the sheep. Discussing good ideas. Singing songs.
I want to dwell closer to a few good friends.
I am fearful that this agreement will hamper things
It may force me to leave home - which isn't the end but it doesn't feel ideal. I wanted to be closer to family. Roots. We'll see how this goes.
I dread the loss of complete personal agency.

There's a quick reel for string line in construction that could work for polywire. Design could also be adapted for what I was trying to do. Or perhaps it's just further design inspiration.

I have had slow cold feet on this entire deal.
What is pushing me along?
Restlessness, a bit
Pride, mayhaps
Seeing that I got the bill. Seeing that I can do it. Seeing that it's a challenge.
But will I be happy when I get there?
Will God?
Is there room for this to really be impactful?
Does this have a home in a healthy society?

# SC Meeting
where are we?
- electronics are designed and ready for prototype. might ahve some revisions after reviews
- started conversation with FCC regulations
- got casters and handle designed, ready for sheetmetal fab
After meeting I feel better. Not that we actually really talked about stuff. But I feel better. Doing things alleviates anxiety. Not sure it makes you right. It helps you be less wrong though.
# Grow Grit & Virtue
_“Do not neglect your gift.”_ — 1 Timothy 4:14
Envy lies, misleads and is a poor teacher to say the least. It stares at someone elses grace and tells you that you have none. Your gift is not a possession for you to coddle and adore and parade around for your own private comfort and amusement. It is a trust from God for the upbuilding of His people. Paul roots Timothys gift in the Churchs life—given by God, which means your gift is real, received, and accountable.
Your gift will not erase your temperament or your limits; it will elevate them for service. It is not self-display. It is obedience. Neglected gifts turn sour. The gift you receive is for the benefit of others.
Neglect has many faces: comparison that breeds resentment, fear that hides, acedia that delays, busyness that excuses, false humility that refuses responsibility. All of these are forms of refusal. The parable of the talents does not treat refusal gently. You bear responsibility and you will be held to account.
**Ask. Pray**: _“Lord, show me what You have given.”_ God will answer.
>
**Receive**. Gifts are ecclesial before they are personal.
**Test**. Offer your work in small, concrete acts. Gifts clarify under use. Fruit and feedback will refine them.
**Train**. Grace does not excuse sloth. Study, practice, repentance, and steady prayer are the ordinary ascetics of any charism.
**Offer**. Put the gift at the feet of Christ: use it where the Body has real need, not where you desire.
**Persevere**. Gifts mature under crosses. Pauls charge assumes resistance; faithfulness is how a gift is kept alive, functional, and effective.
Do not wait to feel exceptional. Holiness is not recognition and notoriety. It is fidelity. The Spirit apportions as He wills; your task is to stir into flame what He has placed in you (cf. 2 Tim 1:6), and to spend it in love. Then the command becomes joy: the Church is fed, Christ is honored, and you become what you were entrusted to be—a gift that returns to the Giver with increase.

When you get up there
How little will this all matter
And yet how much it will
How much it will have formed you
A dog on a chain
Where is my master leading me?
Do I trust him?
Do I think him insane?
Where am I resisting him?
Is he tugging me to Zack?
Or is he tugging be back?
At the deepest level
I think I don't want to do this
At some higher levels
I think I do
And so, when it's not a commitment
No big deal
But when it is
Alarms go off
Do I need to just
Go for it
And make something happen?
Do I need to pull out
And regroup
And find a better way?
Are we building on sand?
Is anything built on solid ground?
Is it not all able to be swept away at a moment?
Is anything we make good?
Can we cooperate with you at all?
Are we just to suffer?

THF is using a W1030
the MTD 917-04383 (ordered p/n GW-2675) gear is a... W1030D or W1030Q (double or quadruple thread)... I think double (D). Well, it's not exactly that part but it's 30 tooth, 10 pitch. 1" wide bore, 1 1/4" shaft, 1/4" keyway, .863 wide gear teeth (apparently centered on the boss).
MTD 917-04381 is a left-hand version of this same gear I think.

Revision Date: 07OCT2025
Approved By: TJH

Rules are for the adherence of fools and the guidance of wise men.
- Douglas Bader
Often documents like these are very formal and militaristic. We ought to adhere to this document. However, we will not let it hamstring us. If there are things that it doesn't allow us to do, and we need to do them, we will revise this document wisely. We will not simply deviate from this document without addressing the problem with the process that led us to the deviation. It's OK to do things that deviate from this document for a while and see how they go. It's not OK to put anything into production or push to `main` without first discussing those changes and incorporating them into this document.
# Component Types and Numbering
Components are given unique numbers. Why numbers? Numbers are cheap, succinct, clean, and consistent. The descriptions of parts may change over time, but the number stays the same.
## Parts (SC-xxxx)
Parts are individual items that aren't meant to be broken down further. Parts may be assembled (or even permanently assembled). This includes both custom and off the shelf components.
Parts are numbered: SC-xxxx
Parts have these files associated with them:
| File Type | Extension | Notes |
| -------------------------- | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| SOLIDWORKS Model | .sldprt | Master CAD file - for 3D geometry |
| SOLIDWORKS Drawing | .slddrw | Master Drawing file - contains all other information such as material, tolerances, etc. |
| STEP Model | .step | (exported, do not edit) |
| Drawing | .pdf | (exported, do not edit) |
| Sheetmetal File (Optional) | .dxf | (exported, do not edit) |
| STL Model (Optional) | .stl | (exported, do not edit) |
## Assemblies (SC-Axxx)
Assemblies are a collection of parts that are meant to be installed together.
Assemblies are numbered: SC-Axxx
Assemblies have these files associated with them:
| File Type | Extension | Notes |
| ------------------ | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| SOLIDWORKS Model | .sldasm | Master CAD file - for 3D geometry |
| SOLIDWORKS Drawing | .slddrw | Master Drawing file - contains all other information such as material, tolerances, etc. |
| STEP Model | .step | (exported, do not edit) |
| Drawing | .pdf | (exported, do not edit) |
## Harnesses (SC-Hxxx)
Harnesses are wires, cables, and electrical connectors that are assembled together.
Harnesses are numbered: SC-Hxxx
Harnesses generally have these files associated with them:
| File Type | Extension | Notes |
| ----------------------------- | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| SOLIDWORKS Model (optional) | .sldasm | Usually a geometric representation. Not at all for production purposes. |
| SOLIDWORKS Drawing (optional) | .slddrw | |
| WireViz Model | .yml | A harness described in markup language |
| STEP Model (optional) | .step | (exported, do not edit) |
| Drawing | .pdf | (exported, do not edit) |
## Boards (SC-Bxxx)
Boards are assemblies of electrical components that have been soldered together. They have a single custom PCB and several individual subcomponents that may have designators.
Board design is in the form of a KiCAD project (which contains multiple files).
## Weldments (SC-Wxxx)
Weldments are a collection of parts that are welded together. Weldments consist of several parts.
Weldments are numbered: SC-Wxxx
Weldments have these files associated with them:
| File Type | Extension | Notes |
| ------------------ | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| SOLIDWORKS Model | .sldasm | Master CAD file - for 3D geometry |
| SOLIDWORKS Drawing | .slddrw | Master Drawing file - contains all other information such as material, tolerances, etc. |
| STEP Model | .step | (exported, do not edit) |
| Drawing | .pdf | (exported, do not edit) |
## Programs (SC-xxxx)
We'll need to think through numbering and release stuff for programs!
# Revisions and Releasing Files
The above are "base" filenames. These are the filenames one would use for the active project. However, at certain points, we will want to make releases for these files. Files associated with a particular release should have suffixes -Vx. Versions are cheap. Both the "source" files (such as SOLIDWORKS models and drawings) and "compiled" files (such as STEP models, PDFs) should be included.
For example, when you are done with a part SC-0001 and wish to create a version V2, you should create these files (assuming SC-0001 was drawn in SOLIDWORKS):
- `SC-0001-V1.sldprt`
- `SC-0001-V1.slddrw`
- `SC-0001-V1.step`
- `SC-0001-V1.pdf`
All of these files should then be put in the `released` folder.
You should also then update the `SC-PARTNUMBERS.ods` spreadsheet.
One may quickly notice that these are, thusly, "dependencies". Say that SC-A001 contains SC-0002 and SC-0003. If one updates SC-0002, SC-A001 should be revision-bumped.
We will keep this a "should" for now and create tools that will help identify when this goes wrong.
## SOLIDWORKS Part Files
- Save the `.sldprt`.
- Save the `.slddrw`.
- Save the `.sldprt` to a `.step` file, version AP242.
- Save the `.slddrw` to a `.pdf` file.
- If the part is sheet metal/plastic, save the flat pattern (including any bend lines) to a `.dxf`.
- If the part is to be printed, save the model to a `.stl`.
- Update the version in `SC-PARTNUMBERS.ods` and ensure the component description matches the drawing.
- Move old version files to the `archive` folder, if applicable.
## SOLIDWORKS Assembly Files
- Save the `.sldasm`.
- Save the `.slddrw`.
- Save the `.sldasm` to a `.step` file, version AP242.
- Save the `.slddrw` to a `.pdf` file.
- Update the version in `SC-PARTNUMBERS.ods` and ensure the component description matches the drawing.
- Move old version files to the `archive` folder, if applicable.
## KiCAD Files
- Archive the entire project to a `.zip` file.
- Update the version in `SC-PARTNUMBERS.ods` and ensure the component description matches the drawing.
- Move old version files to the `archive` folder, if applicable.
# Branching - Data Control
One may notice then that revision control can be accomplished entirely without a server. So how can multiple people work together and backups be made? Simple: use git. We'll also have a git server set up, but this isn't necessary. Git is meant to be a distributed system. We will use git as it was intended to be used in this regard, even though we are using git to manage (mostly) binary files.
The `main` branch is where all released files should live. Everything in `main` should be released; the 'living' files should match the released files (i.e. `SC-0001.sldprt` matches `SC-0001-V1.sldprt`... if V1 is the latest version.)
That doesn't mean we only use git when everything is done. Use branches other than `main` to do development work on.
# Future Development - Tools
We want to do these things:
- Get all the latest versions of every part
- See if assemblies (incl. weldments) include out-of-date parts
- See if parts are referencing out of date parts?

- What is the purpose of work?
- I often encounter a strain of thinking (even espoused by priests!) that says that it's just to provide the means of subsistence. "Do the thing that earns you the most money and lets you spend the most time with your family". I find this shallow and lacking though, and I cannot but liken it to something that Franz Jaegerstatter said.
- I can't find the exact quote, but basically, Franz was providing a defense for why he would not swear allegiance to Hitler. Many friends, even priests, were telling him - "You have a wife and kids. You need to provide for them! If you don't say these words, you'll be executed, and you can't provide for them." Jagerstatter said something to the effect of - "If I do this, then I will become a different person, and I will not be able to give myself as a model of sanctity to them, and that is a far greater loss."
- While perhaps not as severe a case, the logic carries over to our work as well - if we partake in work that is spiritually injurious, if we are complicit with evil, no amount of expensive Catholic school, no amount of almsgiving, can compensate for this injury. Work is formative not only on the world around us but on our souls.
- "We can't get second things by putting them first. We get second things by putting first things first."
- I can be very critical so I just want to remind - that Christians aren't people who are perfect, but people who aspire to be perfect.
- So, why are we supposed to work?
- Aquinas gives four reasons (STh., II-II q.187 a.3)
- To obtain food
- To ward off idleness
- For the sake of coralling concupiscence; training in penance
- For almsgiving
- "Manual labor is directed to four things. First and principally to obtain food; wherefore it was said to the first man: "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread," and it is written: "For thou shalt eat the labors of thy hands." Secondly, it is directed to the removal of idleness whence arise many evils; hence it is written: "Send" thy slave "to work, that he be not idle, for idleness hath taught much evil." Thirdly, it is directed to the curbing of concupiscence, inasmuch as it is a means of afflicting the body; hence it is written: "In labors, in watchings, in fastings, in chastity." Fourthly, it is directed to almsgiving, wherefore it is written: "He that stole, let him now steal no more; but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have something to give to him that suffereth need.""
- Schumacher gives three (in Good Work):
- To give a person a chance to utilize and develop his faculties
- To enable him to overcome his inborn egocentricity by joining with other people in a common task
- To bring forth the goods and services needed by all of us for a decent existence.
- The institution to till and keep is given before the fall, not after it. Work is something we are made for - something that existed, and will exist, in paradise.
- Every action has an equal and opposite reaction - work is formative on the workman.
- What has happened to work? (The industrial revolution, response of marxism, etc.)
- Subsistence farming -> Enclosure laws -> The 'rise' of cities and intensive manufacturing, division of labor, etc. -> powerered machinery -> automation
- Inclosure took place between 1604 and 1914, privatizing around 7 million acres in Britain (UK is 60M A)
- Industrial revolution starts in Britain around 1760
- We have very much drifted from "work to eat" to "work to generate capital which can then be exchanged on the market for other goods and services"
- Industrial capitalism emerges and begins being exploitative; it views man as machine
- Marxism and other movements see this, but frankly, just doesn't have a deep enough critique.
- Uses the term 'alienation' - great term, because what we desire is *communion*
- At this point the church begins to speak up - he doesn't invent CST, but he makes it relevant to the world, and begins to use the world's language somewhat to speak of that which the church has always spoken of.
- Leo writes of the communist view of alienation in R.N. pp 10
- Marx espoused "labor theory of value"; that things are given value by nature of the fact that they were worked on
- Human labor is creative - it depends not just on our hands, but on our eyes (and thus, our hearts, because you can't make judgements or even see the world without a value system)
- Capitalists recognize this - the interpreter (e.g. manager) is a worker
- The ideal is that every worker is an interpreter; industrial capitalists don't share this sentiment
- (Automation is generally done first by turning a man into a machine, then building a real machine to replace the man-machine... or at least by first perceiving man as a machine.)
- The ideal is that the worker should become a capitalist
- “Too much capitalism does not mean too many capitalists, but too few capitalists.” - Chesterton
- But every interpreter must also be a worker, otherwise he loses touch
- "The right way to do science is to start on a firm foundation of empirical evidence. Galileo developed the fundamentals of kinematics, building on medieval foundations, by observing balls rolling down inclined planes, swinging pendula, and as legend has it by dropping objects off the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Newton developed his Universal Law of Gravitation, building upon the observations of Tycho Brahe and analyses of Johannes Kepler, by studying the motion of the moon and comets, and the acceleration of apples and other bodies near the Earth. Maxwell developed his theory of electromagnetism from Faradays observations of iron filings and the studies of Coulomb and Ampere on charges and currents, respectively. His successors like Heaviside and Hertz brought Maxwells theory to fruition. Heaviside was a veteran telegrapher intimately familiar with how telegraphy works, while Hertz immersed himself in a wide range of experiments to create, manipulate, and receive radio waves. “**We must dwell in intimate association with the facts and with actual events**,” declared Aristotle, “**for in this way only can the premises be made to harmonize with the phenomena.**”"
- Aristotle: "Lack of experience diminishes our power of taking a comprehensive view of the admitted facts. Hence those who dwell in intimate association with nature and its phenomena are more able to lay down principles such as to admit of a wide and coherent development; while those whom devotion to abstract discussions has rendered unobservant of the facts are too ready to dogmatize on the basis of a few observations"
- Increasingly we find ourselves in situations where we... it's hard to speak precisely here. it's some combination / inbetween of:
- inability to grasp the entire process
- inability to commune with the process
- no opportunities for growth
- a shrinking inwards
- Subsidiarity: "Just as it is gravely wrong to take from individuals what they can accomplish by their own initiative and industry and give it to the community, so also it is an injustice and at the same time a grave evil and disturbance of right order to assign to a greater and higher association what lesser and subordinate organizations can do. For every social activity ought of its very nature to furnish help to the members of the body social, and never destroy and absorb them." - Quadragesima Anno
- Group questions & time for clarification:
- Comments, critique, outright rage?
- What is the current trajectory of the state of work in the world?
- What is going well? Where are things improving?
- Where are the leverage points (the places we haven't looked, the inconsistencies in arguments/worldviews that can be pried at to reveal reality)
- What can we do to improve our work?
- Increase solidarity - commerce locally
- Maintain the "freedom to not" / "freedom to walk"
- Work to live, act, give alms, improve community, etc. - not to accumulate
- Take ownership:
- "Work for yourself before you work for others"
- independent contracting
- own your tools - sharpen your tools
- swiss industry clusters, not hyper-vertical integration
- "don't do for yourself what your neighbor can do for you" (especially when the thing in questions requires capital)
- Have breakouts for in-depth personal discussion
- How is my current work forming me?
- How is my work forming the world?
- What do I find unholy about my work?
- How can I do holier work? (could be how we approach our current work, or finding new)
- What can I do to facilitate my brothers and sisters in holier work?
Misc stuff:
- "Wages, as we are told, are regulated by free consent, and therefore the employer, when he pays what was agreed upon, has done his part and seemingly is not called upon to do anything beyond. .... To this kind of argument a fair-minded man will not easily or entirely assent; it is not complete, for there are important considerations which it leaves out of account altogether. ... Let the working man and the employer make free agreements, and in particular let them agree freely as to the wages; nevertheless, there underlies a dictate of natural justice more imperious and ancient than any bargain between man and man, namely, that wages ought not to be insufficient to support a frugal and well-behaved wage-earner. **If through necessity or fear of a worse evil the workman accept harder conditions because an employer or contractor will afford him no better, he is made the victim of force and injustice.**" (RN 43-45)
