Russell, I'm interested in how you plan to feed the parts? And how
you intend to orient them?

Sounds like it'll be a nice machine. I've excerpted the part above
because it relates to the machine Mariss Freimanis uses for
assembling his Geckodrives. That machine is a 14K parts per hour
PNP...

I've been driving a fair bit lately, and was figuring out how fast it
had to move to do that as I drove. Scary. Found out later it had
three heads working simultaneously. STILL scary.<G>

P.S. lesseee, how many of my little hobby/small shop machines would
it take for 14K parts per hour...<G> (Prob'ly still cheaper though!)
