Third- and first-angle projection made no sense to me when I first learned it. It took me way too long to realize the projection symbol in the title block was a CONE. No more trying to “unfold” boxes. Just look at how the cone is oriented in the title block and that’s how the rest of the drawing is also oriented.

We’re getting this recipe dialed in... It seems like the harder you feed this RampMill, the better it cuts.

“Tarkka” is the Finnish word for “exact.” We chose to name our company after a Finnish word because of our co-founder Betsy’s grandmother’s Finnish heritage. Grandma taught us about Finnish culture and design and we fell in love with everything Finland. Grandma passed away last week; she was the epitome of Sisu. Thank you Grandma for everything. #sisu #suomi
