Sensationalglyph

Machining, informally as a primer to my coworkers. We have a mill and a lathe at our shop and not very many folks know how to use them or what they can do. I’m mostly self taught so I try to impart some baseline theory and explicit safety warnings while hopefully imparting a small amount of what I find so compelling about the process of machining.

Of course half the time I go through the shpiel, everyone seems excited and then they have to drill a shit ton of holes and realize that machining isn’t magic and sometimes it’s boring. But every once in a while someone gets an inkling of how cool it is so it’s worth it.

Talking truth, I grew up in Central Jersey. It’s a lovely place. I love where I’m at in Brooklyn now, but I try not to forget how good I had it in NJ when I was there
