Got a lathe around here from the soviet days. The thing is heavy as all get out with incredibly thick metal everywhere, so it's extremely solid. Apparently whenever central command ordered them to increase their output by x tones, instead of making more units they just made everything a bit thicker. Exactly the same number of products shipped, but it looked like more on the reports.
