I'd like to see the lathe that cut that thread. Is that a solid piece of metal or is it screwed together?
I think you are looking at the lathe....it's still on it.
I want to see the arms on the guy that ran the tap :lol:
Wow, marksbug you are correct the chuck and drive belts are over on the right.

Huh, looks like women on the left side of the room, men on the right. Looks like a press pic too judging by the VIPs in the aisle down the shot a little.
No one's hair is going get caught in the machinery there...
The third and fifth operator on the left do not look female!
Don't try to guess their gender...
