Right on crazy eyes!! Seen this in other machining shops. The goal was not to reduce the smarts it was to reduce the machinery. The machines were scraped and the countries that do this now got new 'different' 'low qaulity (in comparison)' machines.

It's been a long time since I worked in a machine shop but it's just nuts to think of all small shops and large shops that 'disappeared'.

No shops = no classes = lost art.
