Well alright. I am the Quality Assurance Manager at Atlas Foundry in Marion, Indiana. We currently melt and pour about 100 tons of iron a day. (Link to our page below.) I take care of the ISO 9001-2000 stuff, tooling design, general quality things and supervise our pattern shop. The pattern shop part is cool because we have all sort of castable plastics, plasters, ect. and 2 mills and a lathe on the metal side and just about any wood working power tool you could need.

Oh, and we one of the few places here in the rust belt that is actually doing a little bit of hiring...

Well as the name suggests I am an Armourer in the REME (Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers) in the British Army. My day consists mostly of drinking tea,reading newspapers and playing cards (how we get the nickname of JAFFA's). When my boss is around we are responsible for the repairs of all the weapon systems of our regiment and all the sights, and ancillaries and compasses etc. And any thing else basically that doesn't have an engine.
