So today we had a lot of issues at work.  The oscillator belt motor burned out, hammer mill got jammed up, and we ran smokers, which means there were quite a few messes on the ground.  Smokers are essentially a briquette where all we run is lime, sawdust, starch, and, today, borax.  The good thing is, before the shift was over, we were back on regular briquettes, so tomorrow should be better.
