For the manner in which men live is so different from the way in which they ought to live, that he who leaves the common course for that which he ought to follow will find that it leads him to ruin rather than safety.

Up close and personal

I love machine work. I practically lived in the machine shop when I was in high school. Then came college, then the Army. The last couple of years I've been able to get back into it with my new job. To this day, I still get giddy when I get to work within a few thousands of the vise of a mill, or the chuck of a lathe.
About .012 away from the chuck.

.010" over the top of the vise.
