April 5 will be my 20 year anniversary in the machining industry.
I must be a dyed in the wool machinist because plenty of days I will come home after 8hrs at work and go in my shop an run my lathe or mill to make something at home.
Seeing pictures like these brings back memories of collage where we had WWII era and earlier lathes and mills to learn on. Darn good machines. Not like some of the ,pardon me, crap out of China I see nowadays.
Many of the old machines are disappearing, just like the Power Wagons have over the years. I hope more can be saved.
Brett
