Ian Tomlinson, (Goat Boy) ...... Tommy Owens ( Owens Racing) ..... BSB are machinists and that is our occupation.

QuickTime ( Joel)
5 Kids ( Scott)
Derby Freak (Jason)
DD4h (John)

The guys on the second list know how to turn wheels. I am not saying this to start a war, I am just stating there are three guys that make their living as machinists that I know of on the forum. There is much more to being a machinist than turning wheels.

Good analogy. That was all I was saying nothing more. You could also add Fred Wheeler to that list of machinists. (he is not a member on this forum, but a very good builder/racer) Although his profession was a tool designer, he can machine rings around a lot of so called machinists and design the part he wants to machine as well. BnB racing ran a fabrication shop, but was also an excellent machinist. When he retired he started his own RC boat propeller business and his props hold some current speed records. The Propworks ....check it out if you want to see some fast boats!

Thanks for clarifying Bill!

I forgot about Owens Racing! I remember he posted the neat wheel checker he made!
 
1 second.

I will insult him in a post.

That will get him on the forum quick.

Just because you can change a tire, doesn't make you a mechanic.

Sorry, I could not resist.

Just because you have a penis, doesn't make you a man.

HAHAHAHAHA
There goes my stupid sense of humor again.

It is a step in the right direction though!
 
I would like one of the blocks too, I emailed him over a month ago but got no reply.
I guess he is not making them anymore.
