[Trainer-Talk] Need information on Accessible date stamp

[Brian Vogel]

Mr. Sexton,

An excellent alternative.  Whether the "eyes on" are literally human or
from AI, it really comes down to making sure that the date you will be
stamping is correct before you begin stamping for the day.

Having worked with this kind of stamp on many occasions in the past, it's
pretty clear for each wheel that changes something, be it month, day, or
year, you can tell as single changes occur as you rotate them and once you
know which way you need to rotate to get the change you want on the part
you want, you don't tend to do anything but make the rotation(s) and then
do a quick check of the stamp afterward.
