My mentor told me when I was going through my apprenticeship “ there is always another way and there is almost always a better way “.

Just found you. Great instructional video. School trained but never worked in the industry. Now retired with several machines collected over the years. Have knocked off the dust and getting to use them. Will look forward to more.

Button inserts often work well for me. Thanks for the video.

I just read your page description. Exactly what I am looking for. I wanted to start machining to complement my heavy equipment, trucks, and trailers, welding side hustle. I don't want to make trinkets. I used to have a need for bushings with a grease groove for dump trailers. I moved so I would like to get back into it. Please, if you can, show some of the work you do, with an instructional platform. Thanks again
