    Can I rant/comment about mechanic coworkers?long

    706 update

    Everything else looks good except the broken rod, I will just make sure everything is adjusted right when I go back with it and keep my fingers crossed. I also make it through delta quite a bit, meeting us sounds like a good idea to me. My number is 970 812 6764

    A different way to sharpen a drill bit

    People might disagree with me here but that is a good way to get a drill bit back into shape if it is really messed up. But you will never get the relieve right.
