[Zmagnette] Machinist projects

[Steve Hanegan]

Machinists are magicians... a good one can take a lump of steel or aluminum and turn it into art! I have known many good machinists in my life, and every one of them is a very highly valued craftsman. You have every reason to be proud! Having access to a good machinist is worth WAY more than money!

Some of the other ideas are a bit more like engineering projects with a machining component.  I don't think this is an opportunity for a "production run", more like just an item or two.  Whatever he makes will probably have to stay in his "portfolio" for a while for grading and showing off while looking for a job.  Depending on where his career takes him, there may be some opportunities for other MG stuff in the future.  I'm very proud of him and I think it will be cool having a machinist in the family.
