Absolutely correct. I don’t think it’s anything new, either. The show rods of the ’60s certainly weren’t built to drive on a regular basis, they were built to win trophies and draw attention. Same as today.

Who is this D.W. Guy?

You should consider journalism sir or maybe politics; D.W. for Prime Minister.

All kidding aside, very accurate,clear and concise. I couldn’t agree more. Pleasure to read something on this topic that is grounded.

Keep up the great work.

When sharpening tungsten for the tig torch, Chuck them up in a cordless drill and spin the tungsten against the grinding rock with the tungsten pointing so the rock is turning straight towards the chuck. it makes perfect points on the tungsten and keeps you from burning fingers as the tungsten heats up from the grinding process.A light pressure sweeping back and forth on the rock keeps the rock dressed off evenly too. Remember, always use a clean rock for tungsten and NEVER grind any other materials on that rock. This will prevent contamination of the tungsten.
