I revoke my last post

Because, when the professor finally turned up on the second day of class (today), he blamed his absence on angry badgers that attacked him. So he's pretty much awesome. I'm still kinda not looking forward to the actual using-power-tools thing, but at least it might be fun. Also we're not being assigned hours in the shop, like I'd thought. I just have to shop up on those days before my afternoon class for a few hours and do stuff. Not so bad after all, I can finally stop worrying...for a while at least.
