    Machine Tool Show, April 8-12

    So I was filling in the forms for some show tickets and it occurred to me that the PM list of international shows was missing a couple. This one will be here in a month - http://www.ccmtshow.com/enindex.jsp Planned to be a bit bigger than last year, which was still a little virus-dampened --...

    OT sort of, or maybe not: Foreign Aid Incorrect claims

    Sorry, shouldn't do this but fools rush in; thread was rightfully locked because people were going nutso but one factual thing was being misrepresented, and I hate lies. Neither Australia nor the US is giving "foreign aid" to India. India quit accepting foreign aid in 2010, thirteen years ago...

    Create Tool

    I don't know if this is a good idea or not but what the heck, throw some sketti at the wall and see if it sticks. Anyone who has been interested knows that for the past few years Create has been ... out to lunch, let's say. A few people have asked and we've snuck onto their personal phones a...

    FS: rotary surface grind attach, knux inserts

    Last month's show saw these, knew they existed but hadn't rubbed the paint before. They have a pretty limited use but if you have a fellows shaper and no arter, heald, or taft-peirce and no room for one, this is a possibility. If you cut gears on a shaper you really want to sharpen the cutter...

    FS - benchtop sharpeners, artificial diamond ?

    Bought one of these a few weeks ago : and I really liked it (the m-i-l absconded with it when she went back home, it sharpens knives and even The Cleaver really good). It's too cool, really. The wheel is 3-4", plated with something that I don't think is diamond, maybe a relative of borazon ...

    Fire and Explosions from American VFD

    I know how acerbic responses in this forum can be. Doesn't scare me at all. The only one who is a pain in the ass is that admin5 creep.

    Selective blackouts cont'd (then probably memory-holed :-)

    It's a dumb idea, Ox. As in, you can clean out the coolant tanks and run the vertical broach and clean out the grinding swarf and pull that burnt-out motor out of the bottom of the lathe and don't forget to mop the floors and clean the toilets, but keep outta the lunch room, buddy. We got a spot...
