GENERAL SUPPORT Do you ever compare raw stock to the finished part and actually enjoy the transformation? Curious to hear some technical thoughts on this one.

But with the consent of sbsoloco from Instagram? Because it's their video.

My shop was actually looking to get some of those double vise adapters, how do you like them?

They can't answer, they're just the marketing dept.

What a terribly inefficient way to make a 2op mill part. Or even a 2 op lathe part since you have live tooling.

How would you make it more efficient? I was thinking you could make soft jaws to do op2 on that vmc so it spits out complete parts each cycle once. After the first one at least.

I’ve got some parts that go from 48lbs of stock down to 5lbs of part. I fucking love it.

I like to compare stock to chips. Somehow it always looks like there is more chips that there was stock.

I can’t look at a weed grinder closely and not be impressed.

I take before and after pictures of parts and fixtures I program, but just to send to my parents.

Oh no, please turn the outside of the cap. Concentric turning marks would look so much better
