Genius
Inspired by my high school music theory teacher, who would always refer to writing inversions as “decapitating the snowman”… Happy holidays, and stay warm! :)

On Feb. 20, 1962, John Glenn blasted off into space and became the first American to orbit the Earth. Behind the scenes, thousands of engineers and mathematicians worked tirelessly to make NASA’s Friendship 7 mission a success. Historical photos show them as white men in crisp white shirts and ties — but we now know there’s more to that picture.
In her book Hidden Figures, author Margot Lee Shetterly gives name and voice to the African-American women who worked as human “computers” in the space program. Now, just a few months after the book was published, a new movie is also telling that story. (The film rights were optioned just a couple weeks after Shetterly got her book deal.) As mathematicians and engineers, these women made incalculable contributions to the space program — and the fact that they were African-Americans working in the segregated South makes their stories even more remarkable.’

Among my favorite Christmas goodies: an Andruss (1821-32) wooden jointer plane, Stanley "Sweetheart" (1920s) marking gauge, and a HEAVY carver's mallet made of super-dense lignum vitae (old, but no idea of date). #WoodshopNerd #proudofit
