Somebody was suggesting a scope to see wuzzup while the drill bit is
in situ. It appears the Meteors have this available on at least three
models, one of which is CCTV.

Hmmmm.... I wonder if there is a practical way to do the CCTV thing on
my Black Diamond? Hmmmm...

Yeah....right....another dream!!

Why? Need a microscope camera? I think Ive got a Sony CCD
microscope/camera kicking around here somewhere.

By far the best drill grinder I have used (& still use) is a Black
Diamond. After using one I got rid of my Darex....honestly it is a
hunk of **** in comparison.....but at 4X the price, it should be that
much better. The only thing that you need to fine tune on a Black
Diamond is when you split points on different diameters. For smaller
drills (say under 1/8) the Meteor line is the best hands down. With it
I can easily split the point on a 1/64 drill. Pretty spendy machine
tho....

"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in
liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support
to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that
would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked
passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us
today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement,
reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit
the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam"
