This is wonderful. Thank you.

I have questions about how much it would cost to get started in the way of tools, but I'd imagine the resources above will cover that, so I'll RTFM. I'm hoping it won't require my finding some old-school lathe from the 1950s...

I've wanted to dip my toe into the machining world. I have basic tools, mainly for routine home maintenance. Is there a book, website or course you'd recommend to get started?

I'm curious what you've seen in your friends that would make them seem massively better. I've thought of trying out supermemo, so I'd like to hear how it's helped you.

If this is really how things went down, then suing the city seems reasonable. The rest of your comment is a little over the top though, no? Have the police in question spend years in prison? The only good cop is a dead cop? I'd imagine the OP doesn't think this way given his usual, positive interactions with the SFPD.
