Machinist
You’ve seen it on TV – some guy using a machine to carve out a wicked custom aluminum wheel he designed on the computer. Well, that guy is machining, and it might be just the career you’re looking for. Machining is defined as any operation that changes the shape, surface finish, or mechanical properties of a material by the application of special tools and equipment. Machining is almost always a process where a cutting tool removes material to effect the desired change in the work piece.
