Welcome to the lab notebook. The Gentleman Scientist is where I write up the experiments, builds and small obsessions I'm working through, from the garage bench to the cocktail glass.

The notebook is just opening, so most of what you'll find here is planned work, not finished results. Every entry carries a label, and nothing is presented as measured until it has been. Pull up a stool.

What the labels mean

Planned
the question, the method and the apparatus. Not yet run.
In progress
underway. Notes only, no conclusions.
Results
run and measured. The data is shown.
Simulation
computed from a model, not measured. Main assumptions are listed.
