Gifts for Remote Coworkers - Coasters 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.
Every time you set your drink down, you see a little reminder that you're not alone in this corporate circus. Coasters are the unsung heroes of desk accessories - functional, unassuming, and now finally funny. They protect your desk from water rings while protecting your psyche with a well-timed joke.
