    David, a friend once found an antique foot powered metal lathe. I tried taking a .02 cut on a piece of aluminum. Those things will work you to death. No wonder the old craftsmen were so tuff and stayed in shape. 🙂

    Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
