Yeah man, that old bastard rules, he is the coolest SOB Around, says Rich. Hell, that "rapid prototype stuff" makes me wanna "stroke my little Kenny"
You're not kidding. To be able to draw stuff on a CAD terminal (probably with the latest version of ProEngineer, with all the trimmings, of course), hit a button, and then go pick up a wax part in a few hours would be too cool. And I'd bet dollars to donuts that the've got the software and hardware to generate CNC machine code to do the final machining on the part as well. I've got to draw it by hand and then try to machine it on a manual milling machine that's older than I am, using my very limited machining skills.
All this new 4-stroke stuff in GP racing is really cool, just imagine when BMW joins, and Triumph (after they get bought out by Harley) ohh my god, what did I just say; Harley buying Triumph!!! Ahh well, just wishfull thinking from a stockholder
