This week one of the minions and I, are in Rochester, NY, working for a company that makes and sells machines to other manufacturers, that cut gears. Lots of Mazaks, Haas, names I can pronounce or spell and numerous other CNC machines. They are very hush-hush about the actual machines they make, security clearance to get in the building is extremely tight (I've had easier times getting in and out of prisons and nuclear power plants, than these people).
On the other hand, they are extremely proud of the various and plentiful gears and whatnots, that their machinery cut, they are on display, for all to see.
They have an Ekland bench top drill press in the boiler house, half under a pile of crap, that I would love to own, as I was looking at it, the facility supervisor said, "its not for sale, at any price", Damn!!
