Re: machine shop horror stories
My team has been pretty good about this (knock on wood) but last week I sent part of a lathe (I forgot the actual piece name) flying at my mentor while welding the tip of the blade to the metal I was cutting into. I also broke a tip off, sent a wheel flying off the lathe and cracked a wheel from tightening it all with in 3 hours of each other. No one was hurt in anyway (unless you count my ego.)

:/
