Abstract: A method of removing unwanted material from an article having a variable form can include scanning the article and determining, based on the scanning, a location of the unwanted material, determining tool paths of a cutting tool which will result in removal of the unwanted material, and displacing the cutting tool along the tool paths, thereby removing the unwanted material. A material removal system for removing unwanted material from an oilfield drill bit can include a rotary indexing device which rotates the drill bit about a longitudinal axis of the drill bit, a scanning device which scans an outer surface of the drill bit, and a controller which determines a geometry of the drill bit, based on at least one scan by the scanning device, determines a location of the unwanted material, and determines tool paths of a cutting tool for removal of the unwanted material.

Abstract: A bocci ball caddy including a pair of similarly shaped halves, each half having a top rail, an opposed aligned bottom rail, and a plurality of coplanar and parallel cylindrical spaced bars extended therebetween; a hinge mechanism secured between the bottom rails of the halves for allowing the halves to be folded into an orientation with the top rails placed in opposition, the bottom rails placed in opposition, and each bar of one half positioned in a spaced and symmetrically aligned offset relation to a corresponding bar of the other half to define a coupling bar pair and with adjacently positioned coupling bar pairs defining a holding space therebetween for holding a plurality of bocci balls in a linear stacked sequence; and a coupling mechanism for coupling the halves together.
