I should have posted this a week ago, but I sort of got sidetracked. My apologies.....

I'm sure you're all sick of hearing about it, lord knows I am, but I must mention COVID-19.

The plant I work for produces mostly (80% +) automotive parts. Unfortunately, several companies have cut or outright canceled many orders, as companies cancel orders with them. Businesses shuttering for the time being and all that working it's way down to us. Many of our machines sit dormant, but nobody has lost their job, as of writing. That said, the future of the company isn't exactly clear. We aren't exactly a large company, having less than 100 people employed.

So, what does this mean for the project? 

I, honestly, don't know if I will have a job next week, or the week after, so on and so forth. Until then, I've cut out all unnecessary expenditure as a precautionary measure. This, sadly, includes Gold Dust. 

The project is not canceled. Just put on hiatus until the country calms down and orders pick back up to normal, whenever that is. That said, when things do level out again, I'll resume progress, starting with an alignment. Not sure if I could even get an alignment right now, actually.....

Be safe everyone.
