COVID-19 Coverage

As the largest online metalworking community in the world, Practical Machinist is committed to supporting the manufacturing community during these difficult times. Our goal is to share stories from metalworkers whose lives have been affected by the global pandemic. We’ve also put together some e-learning resources for you to reference during downtime, so that you can keep your skills honed while staying safe.

If you would like to share your story or discuss ideas on how to help during the COVID-19 pandemic, tag us and use the hashtag #metalworkingstrong on social media or contact us at [email protected].

To support the future of American manufacturing, Practical Machinist has donated a portion of our April and May revenue to family-owned Moss Machining, custom fab shop Thiel Metal Fabrication, and the Reshoring Initiative. Thanks to our supporters for making this possible.

We are all in this together and we’ll come back stronger than before.
