FWIW I never thought he was checking his watch to see what time it was; I assumed he forgot what day it was.

If a reputable news source like the Bee says he was checking to see if he washed all of the blood off of his hands, why would you doubt it?

Shouldn't have procrastinated... I discovered that the gunsmith I was going to have RMR one of my Glock 19s retired and closed his shop this spring. :(

A man was sitting at a bar enjoying an after-work cocktail when an exceptionally gorgeous and sexy young woman entered. She was so striking that the man could not take his eyes away from her.
The young woman noticed his overly-attentive stare and walked directly toward him.

Before he could offer his apologies for being so rude, the young woman said to him, "I'll do anything, absolutely anything, that you want me to do, no matter how kinky, for $100 on one condition."

Flabbergasted, the man asked what the condition was.

The young woman replied, "You have to tell me what you want me to do in just three words."

The man considered her proposition for a moment, withdrew his wallet from his pocket and slowly counted out five $20 bills, which he pressed into the young woman's hand.

He looked into her eyes and slowly, meaningfully said, "Paint my house"

I love delrin....

Anyway, another machining question primarily for HTRN. How many axes would you want on a DRO for a Bridgeport? Not quite ready to pull the trigger on one yet since I want to figure out why my power feed on the quill isn't working right first, but I think it will be the next thing. Was looking at the Dropros units with the magnetic scales.

I am starting to think that I might want to get one for the lathe eventually too.

Ideally? All 3 plus the quill.

You can live with 2 axis quite easy.

I can't speak about the hobby grade import readouts - my experience has been with brands like heidenhain, Newall, Anilam, Sony, etc.
