Nice! I've got a folder of weird little code snippets like that too. Isn't it funny what we end up collecting?

Man that's rough timing, but honestly I've never trusted those modern blower motors for heavy forging. My old hand crank blower from the 70s has never quit on me once, even during all day hammer-ins. Sometimes the simple gear just works better when you're pushing metal that hot. A seized motor in the middle of a commission is a nightmare though, hope you can get the axe back on track.

Seriously, how bad could it be... just find the pieces and glue it back together.

Ugh, but what even makes a layout "functional" to them?

My buddy learned that lesson the hard way too.
