February 2006 Martinek Mfg. Newsletter
Once a Month - Always Interesting
  Greetings!
Well Well Well Spring is in the air. Time for a new updated newsletter. Actually time for a new 500 horsepower V8 Hot Rod, but that is not in the cards for me (at this time heh heh), so I will just have to busy myself with the new and improved newsletter.

The Link of the Month is American Science & Surplus It is a great site just for the entertaining description of the hundreds of odd and interesting surplus items for sale there.

Of course we could not give up the ever popular Joke of the month, Actually I could never give it up. Obviously, based on all the requests to please PLEASE make it stop aaahhhhhhhh..........

A couple of New Jersey hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the operator: “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator, in a calm soothing voice says: “Just take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead.” There is a silence, then a shot is heard. The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: “OK, now what?"

This Joke has been scientifically examined to be the worlds funniest joke. Here is the Data to Prove it.

Production Enclosures
by Mark Martinek   Preparing for Painting production grinding chassis
A large portion of our production is dedicated to enclosures. It is amazing the variety of sizes and shapes that we have seen over the years. That is the beauty of Sheetmetal, ever changing and versatile.

After Welding, most enclosures need to be prepared for Painting. All the welds are carefully sanded down and any imperfections are sanded out of the surface of the metal.

 
Precision Machining
by Mark Martinek   Heatsinks heatsinks - 3
The world needs thousands of heatsinks. We can make them. We work closely with a Custom Extrusion company and can rapidly design and produce custom extrusions in any shape. We can assist in producing the CAD files to create the custom extrusion or can build to an existing design.
Lifes too Short
by Mark Martinek   If your feeling stuck in a rut, try Burning Man Cupcake Power
I think this picture does a good job of capturing the essence of Burning Man. Powered Cupcakes. Actually it does a good job of capturing one of the essences of Burning Man. Some of the other flavors can be found in the Burning Man image gallery. As I found out in 2003 all the possible internet research will not prepare you for your first experience of walking out onto the playa your first night and seeing the event in person. After Burning Man you will never be the same, in a good way. You will no longer be able to imagine the limits to Human absurdity.
