Isn't nature just so beautiful? This little guy will hatch any day now. I need to stock up on some carbide worms.

@OzarkVigilance @synerGy_FAB You want your parts to grow up big and strong don't you!?

@spikesguides Baby steps, they'll start freeze distillation next

@CooperZurad If you can rig up some sort of sleeve Wire EDM to shoot out like Spiderman's web you might have a decent shot

@AzzyDesignWorks I have the deluxe machine package from them, I love the quantity of stuff you get, seriously it includes everything you need to tackle some larger projects.

The main issue is work envelope and rigidity. You can hardly fit anything on the bed, and you've got to take skim cuts.

@broblas Ah damn, oh well.

@AzzyDesignWorks @Makera_Inc Genuinely, its not worth the headache to try and figure out when double sided tape (or painters tape and CA glue) is so cheap

@JasonPremoMFG All employees recieve a complementary pizza party on their birthday and they're allowed to take their 5 minute break any time they like!

@jimbelosic I love the idea of showing off personal projects in an interview. If you're not passionate enough to be building and creating in your spare time, then you probably don't have the knack for manufacturing.

@CyberQueenMara @McMasterDaily You can save a few bucks buying it from the source

@lmi3d Any recommendations? I was using a gage block before but I think the thickness was throwing it off a bit

[Minuteman Engineering @MinutemanEng]

Working more on CaliperVision and integrating it into our site. You can use your phone as a comparator.

It'll never replace a keyence, but you can get some quick dims on a contour

Instead of 3D printing a calibration board I decided to go with ChArUco, hopefully more accurate.

@prac_machinist Nothing has more aura than vintage machine tools / shops

@__el__toro__ Nice, how did you guys machine this? Sinker EDM?
