Ye real cleaver.!!! . . The Drives will love dealing with all the resonance banging thru that motor...

Here's one from a few years ago - at a Pneumatics Suppliers Counter in Nottingham.

Me: Can I have one of those XYZ-123/B, like the one that's on the shelf over there.
Jobsworth: I'll just look it up on the computer. Sorry mate we haven't got any, computer says zero stock.
Me: What about that one there!
Jobsworth: If the computer says we 'aven't got any, we aven't got any.

Cheers,
Rob

Hi everyone, it's been a while since I've been here, but I'm happy to say that my team and I have radically changed the design for our desktop CNC machine with many of the thoughts and comments that you gave us several months ago!

If you have any other feedback please let me know!

Well Sadly you need to sack the team.!! . . . . My head starts shaking around 1:45 and by 1:50 my ribs are hurting Maybe a career in Comedy is better choice.?

The biggest problem i see with all this is that there will be people /Americans/ dumb enough to make your Kickstarter campaign succeed. And please straighten that screw cause i have vertigo from watching it.

Steady on chaps, we have all seen worse and he has not created a monster that will require a Hiab and skip to get it to the landfill site.
Some claims were made but we all had to start somewhere.
Confidence is that feeling you get just before you understand the problem.
Experience is that thing you get just after you needed it most.
The test piece may look like a dog chew but it is a beginning and can be improved on.
You must expect a bit of banter when you teach Granny how to suck eggs, isn't English a colourful language and I think it is time for my meds
