Later during working for clients I learned CO2 welding also.
- Tool room experienceI have experience with writing 3-axis CNC tool-paths for Mill Machines. I physically work in a number of tool rooms setting up work pieces, choosing cutters, feeds and speeds. Drilling reaming tapping filing all have been done.
