So these factory dudes kept this thing at the factory office and it was a pain and a half to get in there. I had to wear overalls, tell everyone my name was Bob and in general act very excited around power tools. Then we almost got busted when the foreman saw the camera. That cost me a $40 "donation to the foreman fund". I need to work on the sneakability of operating in hostile environments.
Anyway there's a photo and story up in the Freakopedia, go check it out and see for yourself if it was worth the trouble.
Lan also tracked down this couple who has some long working appliances. Oh . . .spooky. I conducted a phone interview with them and I think it turned out about as exciting as you can imagine.
