His name was Bob, but the family called him BeelzeBob.

I haven't been here in a while either. I'm slacking.

I haven't done any slide work though that shouldn't be any trouble.

Man alive things are busy these days.

Any of you other industrial people noticing a sizable uptick in business?

I know I've been gone a long time, but is "man alive" a new expression?  Like "man alive, it's hot today!" or "man alive the Warriors are good this year."

I picked that up from my dad like 35 years ago. Both of the examples you gave are phrased correctly.

One of about 100 chunks of Durabar iron we did

Manifold blocks we do 250/month of. This setup hits all six sides and when the cycle is done a completed part comes out, a raw blank goes in and the rest transfer to the next station in the process. These are why I bought the horizontal. Haven't had time to move this job to that machine.

Helical Solutions makes some of my favorite tools. These five flute endmills make the beast with two backsing rage through material. Rage.

Some more things we've done recently

We've been making a bunch of these stainless glands.

Customer - Can you make 2500 in five weeks?

ML - make the beast with two backsing right we can.

So instead of running a bunch of side one then a bunch of side two through the lathe we run side one in the lathe and 20 side twos in the horizontal mill at the same time.

So a fixture building I went.
