    At least he didn't give you a part to machine and say, that's the last one on the planet so get it right...
    I've got that at least twice in my career. The last time they could have got one for replacement but would have been 4 months and 160k

    Customer came to pick up these parts I made last month and said oh they are supposed to have the groove. See where the paint is? :annoyed:

    The ones on the side won’t be a problem, it’s the top that’ll be tough. It’s a 2.250” R x .0625” deep.
