For FRC Student Machinists

[Dasistmeinmoped]

This thread is dedicated to FRC student machinists. Im talking about the few of us who simply think +/- .002 is unexceptional. The masters of the dials, defeaters of backlash.

I hope im not alone when i say one of my favorit parts of FIRST is machining. Not just 80/20, but things with dimension. Ive learned so much just from working with tools that i know will come in more than handy while working somday as a mechanical engineer, which is my ultimate goal.

Call me a loser, but there realy is somthing about thos chips flying, and the presision required while boring holes for bearings. I know my school bridgeport, and southbend like the back of my hands. Ebay has become basically used starrett tools.com

i am starting this to hear from any other kids who realy care about the product make, and HOW they make it
