Twmaster, Machine shops aren't the most cleanest places. If you ever been to a commercial shop, specially a prototype place where the customer needs it yesterday......you can get knee deep in chips there. Clean up happens after the jobs are done and the checks in the mail.
But, I scored today! Pneumatic foot pedals for my Kool Mist costs $50 and up. I was going to dream something up using a blow gun and a door hinge and some wood but... I just happened to be in the lab where I work. They do product testing and some assembly work. Lo and behold a box of new foot pedals. So I said to the suppervisor of the lab "man I need one of these but they cost so damm much" he says "what for" I said "I have a mini machine shop at home and need it to blow chips away"...so he picks one up and hands it to me. Take it he says we buy by the hundred....$25 bucks....don't worry about it. I guess when I praised the tech's and him for doing a good job for me in front of the vice president of the Co. Paid Off. I just need to figure out how I got to do the plumbing now! Soon I'll be misting!
