Re: [TCML] Piranha - Terry Fritz

[piranha <piranha@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Steve,

We never really die do we :D  Yesterday was my 50th birthday so I guess 
people can actually live to be that old :D  Steve hosted my first site 
at better.org (I "think" that was the site, too old 'now' to remember :D )

I don't read many mails but I note my name still ;)

I think that was the Shurline baby milling machine with the turn table 
and probably a TiN coated nitride cutter since that was my style of the 
day ;)  That setup could probably cut disks bigger than the whole 
machine through the miracle of the excellent engineering that goes into 
those expensive little toys ;)

I never really used it for that though.  The dust would make it an 
outdoor chore at the least.

Don't worry, if they tease us we will forget it tomorrow :D

It was under a "looking mean" directory...

I did not see it here:

http://classictesla.com/hot-streamer/sherline/
http://classictesla.com/hot-streamer/Ti-Tan!!/PicsConstruction/


I think the file would have been called looking mean in this 404 directory:

Here it is:

Has a nice hover preview to look for things.  But the data in all that 
is enormous!

I ended up just mounting a rough cut rotor one motor and just lathing it 
down with a chipper like wood cutters do.  Since I was young then the 
dust did not matter :)

If your would have asked be the day before yesterday, when I was only 
49, I would have remembered it all right off :D
