"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

Oh, and I asked.  They could size you for a suit of full plate, articulated everything, and then just load it on in.

And there you are, wearing titanium armor.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Run the math to get the scale and dimensions right, then feed it diagrams on all the pieces of Feudal Japanese O-yori sized for gaijin.

One of the plants I was visiting is a metal shop.  Or so they said.  I saw no welding fumes, no filth and grit all over everything.

But what I did see was a mammoth autofabricator, the great-grandson of the CNC lathe.   You stock up the 3 stories-tall bins, download the print into it from a laptop, and off it goes.  It doesn't weld metal...It laser-fuses it with 100% penetration, a perfect fucking weld every time.  Fucker sneers at exotic metals, plastic, everything.  COMPLETE PRODUCT, NO STEPS.

Ross, their resident mad scientist, was showing me around, and I just sort of stood there going "eeeeeeeeee".  He said he knew exactly what I mean.

Yes, I know that this is how Skynet starts.

I don't care.

Interesting guy, the owner.  He's a member of some weird cult that worships some 2000 year old dead guy, and is required by this dead guy to treat his employees like human beings, perform civic deeds, and never knowingly do harm to anyone else in any way.

I wish there was a religion like that which was more widespread.

I've never heard of that one... it must be pretty obscure.

If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.

We wanted to go with laser weld steel for a project we were on, but what we needed was a circular frame so we had to go with rolled and cut steel.
I'd love to see it in action though.
