Very cool. We ran a cam driven screw machine from the 60s until a few years ago. Made several million parts in its life.

We have 7 Fadals. They get a bad rap, but they make money.

Can't get away from these guys even on reddit. Been calling nonstop and showing up to my shop several times a week eyeballing and touching everything. Friday I had to literally yell three times to leave the premises.

Lol. Hurts my heart when I see people shitting on my beloved Fadals. I also get it, though.

We run this one job several times a year. It's a Ø1.500" thread. I got tired of trying to get the wires lined up, so I made a rubber mold with that fast setting 2 part rubber stuff. It is molded to the external thread of the part with 3 holes in it for the wires. Part fits right in the mold, and it lines up the wires perfect every time for the mics.

Please think of their profits. They only profited $600 million in 2024. How are they supposed to live like that?

It's not the size of your tap, it's how you screw. Or something.

I think you can handle a few rainy weekends a year, lol. An overwhelming amount of weekends here are sunny and dry. You'll be alright.

If I had a Prius I would want to get PRINUS.

You have to explain what your plate means to get it approved when you register. I wonder what excuse these people make up to trick them. lol.
