    This is my first encounter with your kind. I never knew I wanted to see more machinists memes

      If you’re going to stick around I’d recommend getting less salt in your diet. Second hand exposure to a machinist is enough salt to shut your kidneys down four times over.

        Are there’s still manual production runs in the first world? The one machinist I know IRL does manual stuff now, but it’s all bespoke, and his colleagues sound like they might not have heard of CNC.

            What, you’re telling me it’s not all like the cool YouTube videos? /s

            That’s a good sign for every other job that can be automated, I guess.

        That’s certainly a lot of machinists. I’m not production, about half my job is maintenance. Half my job is making parts. And half my job is screwing around.

    Damn I don’t know that I’ve seen an extractor for 1" thread before. Think I’d still rather that than a 6-32 or M4.

      You know I was setting exactly that meme up when the bell rang.

    My favorite is drilling a bolt out and just having the threads wrapped around the left-hand drill bit. No helicoil!
