Summary
I found my way into this trade almost 7 years ago. Since then, I have learned a lot. I've worked mostly on manual lathes and mills, but I have practiced with CNC machines. Although I have never built one myself, I have watched numerous people draw up blueprints for me to follow. Learning from several different people has given me the opportunity to find multiple ways of doing something and determining the most efficient ways of doing it for each project. There is always more to learn and I am eager to continue building my career.
