Way back in 1966, when I first started my industrial career at U.S. Steel's Edgar C, Bain Laboratory for Fundamental Research (which is what it was called before it became a grease spot in Corporate America) Gene Fischione and Dick Glenn were engaged in a "moon race" of sorts to bring out some of the earliest electrolytic jet polishers. Remy Schoone helped Gene build his model; and Bob Sober helped Dick make the competition, I haven't used either one of these fine instruments in nearly thirty years, so the only connection is historical and the good feelings I have about the four nice guys who made them.
