Second Q&A (question and answer) video. Today's video looks at questions about positioning parts by nesting with jigs & fixtures, plastics (polymers), EDM (electrical discharge machining) (spark erosion) and my custom lathe tool post. Increase part accuracy and increase the rate of production while using existing tools, why not!!! As for all THATLAZYMACHINIST videos, this video is produced for novice , garage or beginner machinists.

I produce these videos for fun as a little retirement project that lets me give back a little of what was passed on to me by so many amazing trades people most of whom, sadly, are no longer with us.
