hmmm...consider it posed. Getting up to speed (best I could) on Liquidmetal prospective clients / markets / prototypes was my first goal before I bought in, personally.

The "anvils" are on the Liquidmetal website "blog". Lots of other blog posts and room for comments below.

You can read up on the anvils here:

You can read up on "canards" here:

Happy to help you out.

I have a few more pertinent questions but I'll call 'em directly instead.

I asked a question about the Canards. I was wondering whether or not they can be formed with a single shot or welding multiple parts together. They were formed in a single liquidmetal shot.

For anvils, I believe it's another term for surgical staples. Currently titanium is primarily used for internal whereas stainless for external.

I also recall Paul saying something about targeting disposable medical devices, for instance surgical staples.
