That's a Wrap on My Jacket

This is my finished jacket without the vertebrae because they were drying.

Since I was done I put the vertebrae back in the jacket and wrapped it up. That's a rap on my first jacket.

Once I was done on my jacket I got to try out the air scribe to remove the caliche from some of the bone laying around the lab. That's basically a mini jackhammer that looks like a pen with a metal tip that blows air through it. I found it very calming to work with under the microscope.

Here the brown is the caliche and the red is the actual fossilized bone.
