John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 08/15/2017 09:00 am I have seen these plugged cents a few times here on CCF. Type in cent plug in search box. I would like to know why so many of these are out there. Maybe some kind of a test, as part of a schooling program? John1 Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 08/15/2017 1:57 pm Wonder if these are not a trade school test of laser cutting. Like for programming these large CDC machines. I too have seen some lately? We're talking microns in size here to put back together and hold. Edited by Crazyb0 08/15/2017 2:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff
