exactly my thoughts.. you will regret it latest at the point where they need to to remove small particles with a sharp metal "spoon" and a drill at 4am..that what happened to me and since then i am always wearing eye protection at work

[@charleshetrick3152]

@@Warjack1992 irony is on mine I’d been welding and grinding and wire-brushing all day long and was wearing my wicked awesome North (now 3M) model 7600 Darth Vader esque welding face mask/respirator and been working with gloved hands (the Mechanix high gauntlet which they don’t make anymore because they’re dumb) though evidently failed to properly scrub under my fingernails and managed to implant a few tiny shards. It was an expensive next day. So really I also should like to remind these dopes to not only wear eye protection but also proper hand cleaning is valuable.

I'm working as an Analyst at a University now and used to work as a Data Scientist in Manufacturing and I get asked why I miss working in Manufacturing so much and this video is a great example as to why: big or small, high or low-tech; when you work in manufacturing you watch things get *made*. It's honestly beautiful seeing things come together from print to part and when things are particularly large like this you can't help but be amazed at what the engineers, technicians and machinists can do with what would otherwise be an 'impossible' request. Watching stuff like this: manual & CNC maching plus 3D printing for so long encouraged me to take the plunge into hobbyist machining myself. I just missed 'making' and being around 'makers' and it's been the second-best decision of my life second only to finding the greatest partner on the planet.

[@hydraulicfactory]

You are very right, brother. A person who is involved in production cannot leave.

[@MrKotBonifacy]

Kinda off-topic - that YT way of making text *bold* or _italic_ (or *_bold italic_* ) is pretty flawed - looks more like some Q&D afterthought rather than a properly implemented solution - namely, whenever a punctuation mark or a bracket is typed right next to these "markups" (underscore for italics, asterisk for bold) it throws out intended formatting out of the window. Here you typed "made" within asterisks, which should make it appear as *made* - but since you have typed a full stop right after it, it looks like *made*. Also, notice the "unneeded" space between "italic" and the closing bracket in the phrase "(or *_bold italic_* )" from my first sentence here - if not for this space the formatting wouldn't show up. It sucks, but this is YT for ya... ;-)

My first "Real" job after tool and die apprenticeship was in a shop that turned huge workpieces like that. 45 minutes for a single pass was the norm. All I remember of those two years was sitting on a stool watching parts go round and round. I knew the owners, so sometimes I would work 36 hrs straight thru. In a humongous Factory/Foundry/Machine shop. There would just be me and 1 guy in the foundry making sand casts for the next day shift on nights. All alone in the old days wed start work on friday evening. We never even checked on each other. I only knew if something was up if he wasnt clocking out with me on a sunday morning.. And Id wander over and check on him then...We had a list of food delivery places with hrs available, and company had accounts. wed just order lunch or whatever and KEEP THE MACHINES running! My bosses/friends words! I miss that dude! 36Hr shifts! Thats 8rs straight time 28hrs OT!!! In a two day stretch! yee haw it was!

Regarding earlier comments: The British DSG company (Dean Smith & Grace) optionally fitted cast aluminium extensions on their saddle to protect the Z-slideways. I think this may have been an American idea? Some protection from the heaviest dross was given by this measure but a dilligent operator would remove these covers once a week for cleaning and never ovetighten the fixing screws when refixing. The "2 point steadies" on very large lathes would be better described as weight supports where they are forced up to the workpiece by adjustable hydraulic pressure to releive weight load from the live centre. They would have a central pivot point to distribute load between roller pairs. D.B.

At least they have gloves on... Good to see the young buck.

I use all equipment when necessary

[@FredBloggs-s8w]

Glovea and lathes don't go well together. First thing to learn is to NOT wear gloves or loose clothing, which can and do get ripped off (if you are lucky) taking your fingers off or even your life. Learn from other people's mistakes or you are doomed to repeat them.

Lol , times sure have changed. When I was younger jokes were made for wearing safety protection. Now every other commenter belongs to OSHA.

Time has definitely changed... but safety remains the same getting injured then, and getting injured now, bring the same agony. Just considered that you HAVE been very very lucky. I am very sure that your comment here, will not be the same if you would hv had an arm or a leg, chopped off due to you own arrogance.

So when would one like to have saftey glasses? Using air nozzle blowing chips away , Using pedestal grinder, milling maching, a smaller higher rpm lathe. (Roughing. This lathe this running low speed bout...60-90 rpm. 0.04" feed per rev. Bout a 1/4"-1/2" depth of cut. Nothing that would launch a chip at you with prejudice)

My friend, all your calculations are correct, I use work glasses when necessary.
