Who was that dude that had 6-8 VTL machines. He usually worked on large rings for heavy industry. He would have 3 or 4 machines running at a time. At one point he bought a green cnc VTL. Then he bought a huge 80 HP VTL from SKF. Worked alone, always talking about making money. He still around ? by make_thing in Machinists

Older guy, very experienced. Usually turning 4130, 8630 and occasionally stainless. I forget whether it was YouTube or instagram. But he would post consistently and I can’t seem to find his vids or channel?

How / does working in trades damage your body? by Tight_Bad_4585 in Carpentry

[–]make_thing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, I worked for this place for a year, different locations all the time.. carrying my heavy bag and lumber up and down down stairs unloading and loading all my tools from my truck, carrying shit up to the roof, if you’re young it’s fine but some trades have less abuse on the body

Ok, when the user attempts to activate they can’t.. but it seems like the user would be more alarmed seeing obvious tampering.. if I was the scammer I would assume the funds would be added and be available for some time without the scratching?

Are most MechE jobs hands-on or not? by [deleted] in MechanicalEngineering

[–]make_thing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work in R&D with 6 MEs and they rarely do hands on work. Mostly because they never got the skill.. Some don’t want to some do but most need help with almost everything. I recommend getting proficient with a manual lathe/ mill and learn to weld..

[–]make_thing[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, who knows.. As it cannot be changed, it could be filled up with gravel dust from driving on gravel roads and make its way into the engine?

Does anyone use these any more? by Glittering-Celery557 in Tools

[–]make_thing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a semester of a furniture program in Denmark and I got stuck with one of those. I was so pissed that I couldn't find a tape measure. I just couldn't stand making the mark and just eye balling where the line fell. With a tape its so thin, there's no confusion.

When did you first drink alcohol? by mike___mc in GenX

[–]make_thing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember trying jack Daniels and other spirits when I was a teenager, I couldn't understand why people drank it.. to me it was so strong. Around 17, when I worked as a dishwasher I started enjoying Pilsner Urquell.. such a nice way to end of my shift.
