Gifts for Your Mentor - Calendars for Machinists
You make parts with tolerances tighter than most people's patience. Work with machines that could kill you. And somehow explain why 'close enough' isn't a thing.
Why This Works
Machining is precision work that makes everything else possible. You create the parts that go in everything. These stickers honor the craft.
Regular calendars show you inspirational quotes about believing in yourself. Our calendars show you the truth: that every day is another opportunity to question your life choices. A daily tear-off page of dark humor gives you something to look forward to each morning besides coffee. It's like a daily affirmation, but honest.
