Abstract
I am sure that there are those of you who are saying, well, here we go again another commercial about Diamond Turning; or those machines are just too expensive! - we don't know the first thing about Single-Point Diamond Turning, and we could never afford the learning curve. Or how about this argument, Diamond Turning? Not enough business, too little return on investment; and some of you are wondering, "Is there anything really new going on?"
