    I've seen some scary shit back in my machinist days...thank God I was never part of any of it. Biggest one I remember was a guy crashing the tooling into the part on a CNC Lathe at full speed. It pretty much detonated and blew the door off the machine (good thing it was closed) and he and the door went across the shop. Bumps and bruises but was ok for the most part. It's amazing what a decimal in the wrong spot will do.

    We weren't doing any real high dollar stuff like you guys are doing. It was mostly hydraulic parts for cranes, lifts, etc. We had one lathe that was bigger than a school bus and took a hand crane to load parts...I hated that fucking thing.

    potentially some parts for them, but these particular ones came from Italy.
