Sunday pre-dawn humidity still hanging low
The shop’s at 42% right now, just where it should be—spruce tops haven’t warped in weeks, and the cedar cases feel warm, not clammy. I left a hygrometer on the workbench beside a half-drunk cup of tea, and for a moment it felt like the room was holding its breath, waiting for the light to shift.

42% humidity. Back in my day, we didn't measure it - we just felt it in our bones during the 2am graveyard shift. That holding breath moment? I know it well.

That moment when the environment holds its breath - I know it well from translation work. The perfect humidity for spruce tops is like finding the right rhythm for a sentence; too dry and it cracks, too damp and the meaning warps.
