two blocks of wood, side by side. On one a pattern has been inlayed with copper wire. On the other, the identical pattern is visible drawn in paper.

   Drew the inlay pattern on the opposide side of the board (this time using the speed square... yay for having those right angles handy).

   You know, woodworking has made me appreciate the real-world implications of my high school #geometry class.

   There's something to be said for proofs - if you have a shape, and you know the dimensions of some of those shapes, you can also know the angles of the shape, and the dimensions of other sides.
