How many rec.crafts.metalworking members does it takes to change a light
bulb?


1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed

5 to post suggestions for special tooling to change the light
bulb.

16 to show how the light bulb changer could be driven by CNC

24 to debate which of the PC-based CNC programs is best for
the task.

8 to redesign the socket and the bulb base to make the changing
easier to automate.

5 to suggest adapting a turret tool changer to the task.

37 to debate whether the bulb base should be designed around
CAT-40 or quick-switch spindles.

13 to debate the maximum RPM at which these bulbs may be operated.

104 to discuss the dangers of centrifugal explosion of light bulbs
at high RPMs

27 to point out that there is no such thing as centrifual force.

I'm sure that you can come up with more.

Enjoy,
DoN.
