Not high grade work, but the guy seems content with his results.

Several interesting machines scattered throughout:

I get a severe case of the "puckers" watching these guys with long sleeves work around a lathe or any spinning power equipment.

I am amazed every time I see one of these guys casually drill a draft hole that is dead center. Now , I’ve see this guy, Baldi, and Tsuge do the same casual hand and eye, freehand drilling.
