Pfft. I've witnessed a few 6 figure CNC fails. How about when a 10 foot diameter ship screw comes loose from its fixture? Less dramatic was an operator that entered the wrong offset an ruined a rocket engine turbine. It was only the size of a dinner plate but was on day 30 of machining.
Who needs CNC? Got used to stopping a lathe using collets by kicking it into reverse, then tried that with a four jaw chuck, which unscrewed itself, bounced off the ways, gouging them pretty good, and skittered across the shop floor. Not a moment to be proud of.Pfft. I've witnessed a few 6 figure CNC fails. How about when a 10 foot diameter ship screw comes loose from its fixture?

Lathes always scared me, especially the gigantic vertical kind. Almost every shop I have been to has a story about some huge workpiece coming loose and steamrolling through the factory.Who needs CNC?

That reminds me of playing Goldeneye, but tweaked with a GameShark. Ahhhh, fun times.I was so looking forward to this game until I saw this.
If that was a 29er or enderpo machine, the extra tire and wheel would have sucked him right under!Dumbass cyclist of the month award
