Just found this thread. Lol works nights as a machinist

 

Looking great

 

Like it, always liked the round cobble stones

 

Welcome always good to have a machinist around. You running cmc or old school machines.

 

Mostly a CNC Millturn (WFL M40g or M65) but when I first started I ran a big shotpeen machine and they are always bringing me back over there to help out
