As machinist we can make any number of items for any number of customers, some of them can even fall into ethical grey areas. My question is what have you turned down because of personal or political beliefs? Hopefully this does not turn into an overly political discussion.
Stuff I have turned down was generally shady firearms related work. Like hey I have all these AR uppers I just need a little work done on. However I have done work for legitimate gun folks where I was sure all was done within the law. Just had an job engraving the logo for a politician that I don't necessarily agree with and it got me thinking. I did the job anyhow.
What have you turned down? Easier to turn things down when otherwise busy of course. Something about eating makes people adjust their boundaries!
