Ugh same thing happened with my Neopets login! That sinking feeling is the worst.

That dial indicator grid sounds like a lot of work for what you get. I tried logging numbers on a chart and it just never stuck with the crew. We switched to taking a bright paint pen and marking the low spots the laser finds right on the cutterhead itself. Seeing that big orange circle in the dip every day during pre-checks is a way better reminder than a sheet of paper in the office. It makes the wear pattern something you can't ignore.

I mean, I've been using the back of a plastic spoon for scoring in a pinch. Works weirdly well on book board, idk.

Was my brain stuck in the suction line too?

I mean, the Met Gala looks from last year were basically unwearable art projects, and nobody actually expects to move in those. Maybe it's just me, but a lot of runway stuff is meant to be a photo first and a garment second. I've seen some of those pieces up close and the construction is often flimsy on purpose for the look. It's annoying when a basic dress falls apart, but some designers are really just selling an image, not clothes you can live in.
