Hi all,

Actually, I sent the web address twice.  The first time was just a copy and
paste from the address bar.  I waited a while and couldn't see my message
arriving.  I figured (wrongly) that it was discarded as junk mail.  So I resent
it again the way you see it now.  This was done from work.  Again, I didn't see
my email arrive.  So I waited to get home to see what I was doing wrong.  Both
message were there???   It is not spam mail.  I am a regular reader of this post
and have been for a few years.  I never post because I don't know enough about
the subjet to put my 2 cents, but I find very interresting information in here. 
I am building a CNC and intend ( it may take a long while before it is done) to
cut PCB with it.  So I did look for eyelets to use as VIAs a while back.  I
should have put more information with the message.  Sorry for the confusion, it
was not intentional, I was just trying to help :-) :-)

Have a nice day.

Paul :-) :-)

It may be a habit from mailing lists and forums that don't allow URL posting, or
a habit from obfuscating email addresses to prevent harvesting.
