the wheel on the right hand side of the device is a wire brush type wheel which goes between the yard monoblock and removes the weeds & moss if that's what you mean.Is that to cut the grass that grows between the pavers?
Cool!!! I'm very familiar with CNC machines!Cool Beans !!!
I used to work as a machinist. Programmed and operated CNC machining centers ... until they advanced me up to supervisor
On the job 47yrs ago. Had to change careers. Couldn't work all day everyday tied to an inside job. Was good experience though

The machine I'm working at in the photo is a Monarch VMC-150 that used a General Electric controller. Haven't kept up with the technology but 47yrs ago, the controllers worked off programs on punch tapes.Cool!!! I'm very familiar with CNC machines!
Personally, I never cared much for circuit board involvement. I did it for a while, but only because it was required.@Trila ... just to add ... I'd previously worked as a Draftsman for Golden's Foundry & Machine Co in Columbus Georgia. They were founded in the 1800's and still viable today. I was the only draftsman they had at the time and Sonny Grantham, the chief engineer, told me to stick it out for 10yrs until he retired and I'd be moved up to his position. I was 21 ... 10yrs was half a lifetime and seemed foreverBesides, those were the days before autocad and I was tied to a drawing table ALL day drawing blueprints by hand. I didn't like the job and it was wearing on my fingers and wrist. AND I missed the old friends and haunts of my hometown.
SOoooo ... moved back home and found the job as a machinist. The drafting background helped out immensely with prints for parts to be machined and helped understand programming requirements for the CNC machining centers.
Gave all that and more up for a military career. Serving my country as a career was the best decision I ever made.
Oh and in the military, I maintained and repaired electronic equipment. Mainframe computers, display consoles and ancillary devices. Repairing circuit boards down to the component level ... until I was advanced to a supervisor (Chief Petty Officer) position.
A Korean product, clothes for exfoliating your body.
Oops, fixed it.WHOA !!! Clothes do that Jules ?![]()
Tried a cloth today on one leg so I could do a comparison. Definitely exfoliated well. Less than $10 for 6. They can be used many times before washing and using again.A Korean product, cloths for exfoliating your body.
Interesting. How do they differ from a loofah or standard washcloth?Tried a cloth today on one leg so I could do a comparison. Definitely exfoliated well. Less than $10 for 6. They can be used many times before washing and using again.
They’re a very thin, rough cloth. A washcloth couldn’t do this and I found it better than a loofah.Interesting. How do they differ from a loofah or standard washcloth?
If you don't mind used books ABEbooks.com or Thriftbooks have a good selection.
