Another RIP?

[JoeyInCali]

Guys, if you are wondering why Guy Smiley ( real name is Edwin Reyes ) no longer posts here, it's not because he quit his CNC projects.
Edwin has left us for good on April 18.

I brought this post to the fore, for more visibility.

Thank you Al.
That is Guy Smiley Edwin, my mentor and very good friend and a world-class cuemaker artist.

RIP Mr. Reyes

I had the privilege of conversing with Guy on his power supply project.
He had a wonderful sense of humor, very gracious and self effacing.

He was also thankful for any bad suggestions I offered.

First Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians (Corinthians 13, verse 11)

When I was a child, I spake as a child,
I understood as a child, I thought as a child:
but when I became a man, I put away
childish things. For now we see through a
glass, darkly; but then face to face: now
I know in part; but then shall I know even
as also I am known.

I think you have honored your mentor and friend well. He sure looks happy sittin' by his machine.

Thank you guys.
Here's the CNC taperer my friend made for me and I have upgraded.
It now has THK actuators for the XY axes.
Edwin would have been really happy.
I'm getting a thicker/shorter mounting plate for the router and am getting a Makita router.
