With thirty years' experience as a machinist I have the skills and knowledge to fit into any shop. My career started in 1996 running oil field parts on manual lathe for four years. I next transitioned to CNC lathes where I quickly picked up G&M code programming.

Three years later I worked at a overhead crane manufacturer where I ran very large parts on CNC mills. After that I went back to running lathes and VTLs for a manufacturer of gas field components. The last twenty years I was Leadman and did all the programing for the lathe department of two companies.

Even with my years of experience, I feel there is a lot to learn given the opportunity.
