A double post from me today.
The first is an interesting video regarding the selection of drills for CNC aplications. The second, well worth it's 45 min runtime, is an analysis of the mess the copyright system is currently in.

Here's something to make the zombie apocalypse fly by: Mastermilo82 restores a tank.

An Iraqi Type 69 (Chinese copy of a Soviet T-54) captured by the British in the Gulf War, taken home as a trophy and left to rust like the sills on my first Mk.1. Oh, and it's all in Dutch, but that's part of its charm. It's got subtitles.
