There was a discussion on the datum features to be used for 
demonstration. The team agreed to use the cylindrical hole in the 
center of the part as Datum A, the bottom face of the part as Datum 
B, and the slot in the bottom face as Datum C. (See the attached 
first picture).

Since the time of the discussion it has been learned that the part 
being supplied for the machining may not have the slot being proposed 
for Datum C. The second attached picture shows the datum's tused by 
Sandvik for their machining tests.

There was a discussion on the meeting schedule for those 
participating in the demonstration. It was agreed that everybody 
should be at CCAT by noon on Tuesday October 30 so that a 
demonstration rehearsal can be scheduled for the afternoon before the meeting.

The next conference call will be on Wednesday July 30.
