I remember reading about the "explosive forming" or whatever they called it, looks pretty intense! LOL looks like they use it for large round disks to make domes and such.

LOL! I was floored at what even old ratty ones are fetching on Ebay. I have a badly used one and it needs refinisihing. To do it right, it costs as much as a new box...like $500! So it sits...

We gave away our manufacturing base, outsourced everything but the kitchen sink. Now Dubai wants to buy a faucet.

"They are purchasing a machine shop... whats the big deal?"

Gee... the fact that the machine shop produces militarily sensitive parts, likely using proprietary military technology.

I'm starting to view you as less of an apologist, and more of an outright agitator/conspirator.

Let them buy it all. When we have no control over our own fate, then we see how bad these deals were.
