Well, it's been about 15 years since I got my first smartphone.

I remember one of the first things I did was zoom in, use the satellite map, zoom all the way in,

and then watch as I was walking down the sidewalk, and I said, my God, this is the 21st century.

This thing knows where I am to within a foot or two. This is absolutely amazing.

And most of the advances that we've seen in our lifetime have been electronic advances.

But sometimes the world of mechanics gets back in the picture and that's what I wanted to talk about today.

Hi everybody, I'm Bill Wittle here with Steve Green and Scott Ott.

And I want to show you a little video of a brand new manufacturing technique called EDM,

that stands for electrical discharge machinery, machining rather.

Look at these pieces fit together.

There is no detectable seam.

I looked at this and I said, man, this is 21st century technology.

This is unbelievable.

This kind of manufacturing is going to change the world.

Now, today's right angle has nothing to do with

EDM. Today's right angle has to do with manufacturing. We received news just a few days ago

that the one of the most technically savvy companies in the world, Boeing, which is just a giant

when it comes to aerospace and so on, has delayed the launch of their space capsule, the Dreamliner, indefinitely.

The Starliner, I think.

Sorry, sorry, yeah, sorry, Dreamliner is there a 787, thank you, the Starliner has been delayed indefinitely.

And I thought, wow, is it because they're having a problem with their EDM tooling,

or they're not getting those parts to fit to that level of precision? It turns out no. The reason that
