    MILLWRONG!!!๐Ÿคฃ LOL Oh lord have I been there when dealing with installs of precision gear at industrial sites! "See the BIG FUCKING STICKER that says NOT A WELDING GROUND!" Kinda means you don't use it as a GROUND FOR YOUR WELDER! WTFF!๐Ÿคฌ๐Ÿคฌ๐Ÿคฌ

    Thatโ€™s hi tech, and clever to boot. Seen some old applications where multiple grease fittings attached to a common grease manifold being fed by a grease reservoir, and the grease is under pressure from a simple spring force. Not as clever, but still better than pumping a grease gun in hard to access areas.
