You asked some good questions in your first reply on this, if Ballendo
had just been making a general call for responses of interest. I
thought your manner was a bit confrontational for my tastes.

However: he asked for people who'd previously indicated interest to
reply if still interested. Were you one of those people?

Re: asking for investors. That is totally different than asking for
people to send money to buy a product.

Re: Ballendo's posts last year, quoted a bit out of context, offering
the mill/drill. Shit happens. Sometimes you kill the bear, sometimes
you become bear poop. I have loads of projects I want to do, some more
along than others. Many may never get done because higher priorities
keep coming up, interest/opportunity is lost, it becomes obvious it
isn't feasible (price/interest/workability), or someone in China
produces it for a fraction of what I can. If I had someone dredging up
every unfinished project each time I posted about a project, I think
I'd change my name and move to Mars.
