Re: machining differences M1 vs M14
Interesting observations and no doubt are a part of the 'problem'. But even in 'the day' there were not always machinists running the various set ups. My father once told me there are machinists and machine tool operators and machine tool operators are way less expensive. Of course even a machine tool operator WAS still there while the operation was being machined instead of placing a workpiece in a jig then going off to repeat this operation only to return to take the 'finished' part out and send on to next operation.
