Question: You have said in your profile that you use lots of different and expensive machines to look closely at crystals. Have you ever broken or damaged anything expensive?

I’ve never actually broken anything but I’ve come close! Thankfully there are lots of ways to intervene if it looks like something bad might be happening. We have big red buttons which we can use if really necessary! At least I haven’t broken anything that I haven’t been able to fix! I know other people who have broken things accidentally though and I think it is something that will happen to me one day. I have killed lots of crystals in my time though!
