November Tour
November Tour – Hobby, Job, and/or Career Opportunities In Machining.
(Editorial note: Please think about bringing young people and spouses. This has endured as a flexible, well-paid, and healthy long-term income opportunity even during the 2008 recession, sometimes offering paid on the job training. Age or gender have not been much of a factor, including spouses with empty nests.)
Anyone interested in Machining, Design, Engineering, or any other mechanically oriented line of work will find this worthwhile. It is intended to be an educational tour for anyone regarding the fields of Tool & Die, Design, or Engineering.
