I used to work at American Gear --- where we cut and broached 5' in diameter gears. My job was to unload the truck with an overhead crane and load the raw "discs" onto this HUGE rotomill that would surface one side -- flip it and surface the other side... the chips alone from that work could hurt you! LOL


Everything in that shop clunked - pounded - whirred - ground or otherwise made some kind of loud noise.... and everything you touched was black filth (we cut a lot of ductile iron!).

That's a really cool tour -- I love stuff like that!


I'm so happy I got into sales.......
