This is my first encounter with your kind. I never knew I wanted to see more machinists memes

If you're going to stick around I'd recommend getting less salt in your diet. Second hand exposure to a machinist is enough salt to shut your kidneys down four times over.

I'm not totally new, but I'm glad to see there's some on Lemmy.

Damn I don't know that I've seen an extractor for 1" thread before. Think I'd still rather that than a 6-32 or M4.

Can we get a 'Loss' version?

You know I was setting exactly that meme up when the bell rang.

My favorite is drilling a bolt out and just having the threads wrapped around the left-hand drill bit. No helicoil!
