Re: Today at the Workbench
We all have those days... My worst so far was when I was trying to correct a bent key.
I braced it to the best of my ability and flexed. The hinge tube bent in the wrong spot.
Braced it again to fix my mistake. It bent in another spot, and all three were in different directions.
Looked at my bench and realized the problem was because I had forgotten to use the hinge rod as a support. Large chunk of my day wasted.

Re: Today at the Workbench
I've been seeing a lot of flutes lately where the previous tech missed it. Several were loose knock pins causing regulation to be impossible. Solution? make new knock pins. I have a lathe!
