[step-manufacturing] Reminder - conference call today

[Xun W Xu]

Hi! Martin and Fred,
I saw one of the closed action items is "Fred Proctor to investigate 
use of Pro/Manufacturing for developing fish head tool paths"
What was the outcome? We are ALSO doing this. My research fellow has 
got the part into Pro/E (Pro/NC) and started to biuld a list of 
rouhging NC Sequences.

Regards
Xun
