OT - Practical Machinist on Instgram?

Who runs that page? Some of their content sucks.

For instance- today I see they're suggesting one use a flexible tape scale and scribe to create a rudimentary lathe indexer. That post wouldn't fly for a minute in the actual forum and I have a feeling it's lead to the in-flux of unistrut machine builders.

Who does the PM Instagram

Agreed... some firm with a clueless person is my guess.

It would not surprise me in the least. Obviously, what constitutes professional level is no longer a consideration. According to that Instagram post, it would appear that amateur hour and hobby level imports are no longer verbotten, either.

:rolleyes5:

May the Gods help us all.

Probably the same knob who writes those "What 10 types of caliper every machinist should own" type "articles".

FYI there are 2 practical machinist instagrams... one is practicalmachinist_ (Underscore) I have apparently been following the wrong one?

Admin may want to check on that.

Mine is @rlcweldfab if you're looking for welding and fab oriented hackery.
