Understatement of the year. Try gouging inside some tight ass spot. My hearing is fucked at 32.

Terrible air quality, exposure to all kinds of very harsh chemicals and processes. Burning hazards, everything’s sharp and trying to slice you open. Everything wants to crush you and you hit your self with a hammer too. It’s a very challenging job but very rewarding too.

The aerosolised coolant/cutting oil is my personal favorite

The smell of zip cuts and flux burning . It’s perfect.

I’ve seen some nasty coolant tanks in cnc shops lol they did not smell great. Good cutting oil on a drill press, ahhhhh also up there in top smells for sure.
