Thanks, I hate running that long bar but it sure is nice having cuts that are dead on the first time.

I do flat part layout in precision sheet metal. Take a part that you can use and create a flat layout with all the dimensions the machine needs to cut the part. The waterjet makes nice clean parts if you wash them off after cutting. But as the tank fills with sand and demolished sand (mud) the parts get dirtier and dirtier as time goes on. You can see the 3 foot tank is filled to the top towards the rear with a mound of mud.

We rent a 4" trash pump and pump all the sand/mud out about once a year. So my job gets dirty once a year. The mud has the consistency of baby doo doo. I get covered head to toe.

Well haven't checked in here yet, so here's my weird background. Worked quite a while in a local concrete plant, did a lot of maintenance on equipment, custom mold fabrication, yarded tanks, etc... Eventually got an AOS in machining / CNC technology and worked as a machinist for a long time, mainly mill and lathe work both manual and CNC. The last stint landed me doing hypoid bearing pattern development on Gleason 7-axis CNC bevel grinders. Long story short, it was an aweful job and worked 2pm to 1am. Got laid off in the recession, couldn't find work and went back to school. Got my ME from RIT and now work as a design engineer for a company in the rail industry; we design brake components and brake systems for freight trains.

I am a steam plant mechanic (millwright). I started out right after high school sweeping a floor at a fab shop. Then became a welder because sweeping sucked. I worked as a welder for six years and then got an apprenticeship at a chlorine plant. Worked in the chlorine for 5 years. Now at the coal burning power plant for 6 years.

Originally a trained automotive technician, went into the Navy as a Construction Mechanic. Got out and went to college for more mechanic training but stuck around a couple more years and got a specialized automotive management degree. Started out as a dealership service advisor, went to a assistant service manager at a Navistar garage, then to Oldsmobile as a dealer technical assistance advisor. Oldsmobile folded-up, so into GM Service Operations as a service manual author, then advanced service engineer. Left GM when there were a lot of changes happening in '99 & 2000, ended up at a Tier 1 supplier 5 miles from my house as their test lab engineer. Been doing that for 15 years now.
