Fly Tales is an animated comedy television series [2] that was made in 1999. It featured the short adventures of a young, curious, friendly fly. The fly would get into sticky situations in settings such as a kitchen, a museum, a gumball machine, etc. but always somehow manages to escape.
Other tools such as drill chucks, fly cutters, indexable insert cutters, etc. may have an R8 taper shank built into or added to the tool. The R8 taper is commonly encountered on Bridgeport and similar turret mills from the US, or on (very common) copies of these mills from elsewhere.
