OK, I gotta put my 3 cents worth in here. first about Curt's observations (and thanks for that Curt). It would be nice to see more participation here but I am not surprised it isn't more active. Most people would rather watch from afar (my Youtuybe channel is the same way) and I understand that. I have, in the past, gone years without saying anything (but still watched) and now I'm sure some wish for the good ole days :>) I just enjoy being here when I can contribute I will. That's all I expect from anyone.
Second, as to the original question by Bill (it's you fault I am even talking here Bill :>), I also believe the timing of that video is more than a coincidence. Also I have to say that video is a good presentation, not salesmanship. There is a difference between acting and selling. I would say that a true salesman can sell a freezer to an eskimo in the dead of winter. Which brings me to a point I have heard here that I disagree with. the original LOM (before CNC) is a good product and it still can stand on its own merits in the business world. I keep hearing that the LOM was a losing product line and that is why they switched to CNC. Building market share is only one aspect of successful business. Engineering flaws, bad manufacturing methods, or/and poor customer service can bring a good company (or idea) to its knees. I would say that the Edsel is a classic example of that. I still believe there is a market for manual LOMs as well as CNC. thanks again Bill for bringing this up.
