New Poster - Good Machinist Videos
« on: November 12, 2010, 10:42:18 AM »
Hello, my first post to your forum. Recently discovered these machinist training videos, thought they were high quality, so enjoy!

http://techtv.mit.edu/collections/ehs-videos/videos

I'm in "collection mode" for machinist training materials so if you have good sources, please share!

Well! There's no better way to make an introduction, than to post in the wrong forum. Thought your resources subforum was for buying things, but it's apparently for education materials as well. All good.

I watched one of those MIT vids, and my jaw dropped as the fool reached in with his fingers right next to the flycutter
that was still running full speed!  Their safety standards are appalling.  A terrible example for new machinists.
(I'm not criticizing you.)
