Hit 50 selenium cell swaps last month and still counting

Ngl I didn't realize how many Kodak Retinas and Voigtlanders I'd done until I counted up the log. 50 selenium cells replaced in February alone. That's a lot of soldering and cleaning out old corroded contacts. Has anyone else hit a weird milestone like that where you just look back and think 'how did I do that many'?

Respectfully, I think you might be overestimating how many actually needed replacing.

Oh come on @juliahall, you're telling me my idea to swap out every single doorknob in the office wasn't absolutely necessary? I even had a color coded spreadsheet for the brass versus stainless steel situation, but nobody appreciated the effort. Sure, maybe the ones in the supply closet were fine, but they just didn't match the new vibe I was going for. Next time I'll just stick to replacing the lightbulbs that still work, that should go over well.
