Last week in Portfolio Production, a peer of mine and I were randomly selected to print out and trim down a test version of our participants book for the Portfolio Show. Everything was going very smoothly until halfway through the cutting process, our cutting machine suddenly went dark and shut down right as the blade was about to touch the stack of paper. We had no idea what had happened, and neither did our instructor! So unfortunatly, nobody could cut or trim anything using the machine for the rest of the day, until our instuctor’s supervisor was able to come and suvery the situation. The next day in class, the machine was fixed! It turned out that a breaker had blown and it apparently was an easy fix, lucky for us! We had to take some time to catch up to where we were, but we got back on track!
