Yesterday afternoon I was playing hooky from the office trying to get some work done in the shop when a power failure occured. I was using all hand tools at the workbench when the lights went out so it shouldn't have been a problem but I decided it was too dark for me to see how to finish the work so I locked up and went back to the office. On the way back I got to thinking that in the room that my bench is in there are 7 windows and the walls and ceiling are painted white yet I thought it was too dark but what did the craftsmen do in the days before electricity. All the reproductions of old shops seem to dark old shed like structures. I quess this is just another way we are spoiled.
