Bleach on a clog? That's a new one.

That scrap piece trick is solid for sure. Makes me wonder if we overcomplicate things trying to be too perfect. Sometimes the best tool is just a piece of junk wood clamped in place. It's like the cut either fits or it doesn't, and a physical block doesn't lie. All the math in the world won't help if your saw is off by half a degree that day.

Our support line got 47 calls about missing order confirmations in those four hours. Each one of those calls represents a real person who had their time wasted and started to doubt our service. Finding the problem quietly is not a win, it's just damage control for a failure that should not have happened in the first place. That's half a business day of broken trust we have to rebuild. Calling it a quiet morning really misses the impact on the customers who were trying to reach us.

Twisted mess is right, been there.

Too hot is the killer. Keep it just warm to the touch, not hot.
