meanwhile, back at the ranch

While all the playing and partying was going on, Grandpa was laboring tirelessly at the Workshop. Today, he spent time casting type in a hand mould from a matrix he punched himself, but through the week he was also engaged in making paper, setting and correcting type, and printing (with the nineteen other students) a facsimile of an eighteenth-century pamphlet on a wooden common press. Ask him about it once he's had a chance to recover.
