This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Been watching lead times on basic tooling and fasteners stretch out again. The big guys can absorb a 90 day delay, a one-man shop cannot. You keep quoting jobs against stock you do not have and the customer walks. Anyone else seeing this or is it just my lane?

Blame Trump.

hurr durr muh drag queen story time!!

None of this was happening when Biden left. The rest of the world is doing fine but Americans are importing mystery meat, rationing medicine, and trying to scrap together nuts and bolts like the apocalypse has already happened.

Surely another front to this global trade war will solve things, right?
