This is what one of my turbo pumps looks like after it tried to kill itself (it succeeded):
Not all the loose pieces would come out. If you shake it it still sounds like jingle bells...
I used to be a grad student. And now I'm not (thank goodness). I spent a year as a post doc in industry in Baltimore before starting a "real" job with the same company. These are my tales of science, food, travel, and life.
I believe this is a rite of passage for turbo pump users. It's not the first one I've seen like this...
