Repair of Deep Pitting

ATS? Never heard of it. But if can make money, I am sure someone will replicate it. I have seen Mountain Village Edition iPhone, functional, cheap, probably $50-$60 (?) After all, it's not a very complex technology.

I also heard this story on the web. Charles Dickens visited New York in 19th century and felt very angry when he saw illegal copy of his book floating on the market. The purpose of this story was obvious: this is a stage

Alvin, you've never heard of ATS? Not even in this thread?

See my last post above.

I had not heard the term either, until this past week, when I began researching it. I generally knew of the process, and as early as 1997 I had it done locally on my antique tractor steering shaft's rear bearing surface, but I did not know the term.

So the process is not totally new.

And guys, the Navy says there are three other distinct, but slightly different, technologies which do pretty much the same thing. I forget their names. One uses metal powder instead of wire electrodes. ATS just seems to be the one most commonly seen; maybe its the easiest or least expensive, or something.

...dirt cheap..."almost the cost of a new truck".
