What about laser welders Andy? They HAVE come a long way and in several directions. I'm expecting to see battery powered hand held units any time now. We're getting close to room temperature super conductors and those'll make batteries to make a practical electric airplane doable.

What you been up to?

I have 2 easy answers for you Craig, hide your 30k machine at my place, there's plenty of space behind the shop and Deb never goes that direction. 

Does your wife actually go into your shop? If so it's too clean and quiet, Man cave it Bro!

Fine here in central Oregon but rarely post. 

Wonder how I would hide a $30k machine from my wife??
