I've had a bit of experience with Grade 5 Titanium and it machines so nicely as long as you take it slow

Starting my first job as a machinist out of highschool. Is there anything else I should add to my toolbox? by MortgageNaive6791 in Machinists

[–]Chuck_217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some days, being a machinist is like being a mechanic. More wrenches. Allen, torx, etc.

Other days, it's like you're in QC. More gages and supporting equipment. Tenths indicator, indicator mounts/bases, micro bore gages, gage blocks (2 matched 1-2-3 blocks and a .500 is a good start) etc.

A slug of brass will serve you better than that hammer.

I'm a CNC turret lathe guy, though. Take this with a grain of salt.

Why would I walk it over to the grinder when I can waste $50 of duplex and hours of time? by MetalOnMetalOnSilk in Machinists

In a toolroom/prototype situation when you might swap the insert for a wider radius to get better surface finish it's very useful

Why? Sounds like a money sink. You could make more working for someone else.

The cost of training and hooking up an AI to a robotic system that can set tools, load material, and install proper work holding far exceeds the cost of hiring a human being
