SZN1: #ThankAMachinist, 367

I created a campaign to build awareness for machinists. Why? Because, sadly, the general public knows very little about manufacturing. They don’t look around them and see what we see: That almost everything is machined.  So in this episode of MakingChips, I’ll share a few ways you can highlight manufacturing in your communities. It’s not just to build awareness but to also grow interest in manufacturing in the next generation. Because what would happen if no one was MakingChips? – Paul Van Metre Segments [2:51] Leadership Spotlight: Jacob Sanchez [5:17] Everything is influenced or created by machines [9:28] What inspired #ThankAMachinist  [11:00] The Lean Setup Guide from ProShop [12:19] How to shine a spotlight on manufacturing  Resources mentioned on this episode Jacob Sanchez So God Made a Farmer Connect With MakingChips www.MakingChips.com On Facebook On LinkedIn On Instagram On Twitter On YouTube
