I made a tap for cutting 3/8-12 2 start acme threads in delrin.
Nothing , Spent almost all day at work and made 00.00 hours what a waste of time.
Sounds like you are into something, care to share?

I made modified battery supports for my RC car so I can cram more battery in it. Turns out milling graphite with a drill is a helluva way to make a mess.
I went to the lab where a couple researchers gave me about a day worth of machine shop work modifying a a robot part that squeegees the bottom of a well plate.
I hand held a client who needs 3 more of a prototype wind turbine mount that goes on an existing military tripod, and ordered materials.
I'm going to prime and paint all the drywall I just finished in the bathroom I'm renovating once I get back home.
Then I'm going to start pulling the sub-frame from the M3 so I can weld in reinforcements later this week.
If there's time I'll start cutting tubes for the header for the Hayabusa motor in the Radical.
I made 3 boxes out of PVC sheet to house neon that goes in them tomorrow. I also made an antenna delete out of PVC sheet for my AMC.
It was yesterday, but I made a 6' owl playing a banjo out of roof insulation foam board that's going on the stage of a giant bluegrass festival. It's going to look pretty much just like this: About the fest: http://www.rompfest.com/home.cfm
Made a sammich and a pot of coffee. Yesterday I made a tongue and groove, cedar storage box for the deck.
Making a portable transformer to go from 208v to 600v to power our prototype field skids... and I'm no electrician
Plans to travel to Columbus, Dayton, and Cincinnati the rest of the week.
I made reservations at the Holiday Inn Express near Franklin, Ohio. Whoo Hoo.
Well, I didn't make coffee, but I made a hat, a broach, and a pterodactyl.

I verified that the intermediate shaft in a BBM was FUBAR, put the trunk of a show car back together after installing some hidden items properly like the shop that built it should have but didn't, put a new steering box in same and tightened down all of the fasteners that I found that were loose (I am steadfastly avoiding learning the name of the shop that worked on this car, I won't say assembled because that implies doing it right) , and installed front springs in a '67 Camaro the scary way (pry bars, no compressor).
And that's just the fun stuff... ignoring all the boring stuff like brakes and fluid services on regular JoeMobiles.
Now I get to go home and bridge-port another 13B, because brap.
I made a dent in my credit card. Oh, and made the generic steering wheel on Tom Celica tight with a washer.
