Dear readers, as you could see at our first GrindDate last Friday and Saturday, thoroughbred technicians don't actually need a television programme. A really good grinding program has much more attraction.

I think we succeeded in offering a technically interesting lecture and grinding programme at the first GrindDate at Haas Schleifmaschinen. We were very pleased about your interest and the numerous good conversations about grinding and grinding machines.

We would like to thank all interested visitors, the committed speakers and, of course, our colleagues who made an important contribution to the successful GrindDate premiere.

See you soon: Grinding with attitude!

Dirk Wember and Thomas Bader
