America Is Back in the Factory Business

I work as a master diesel mechanic on heavy machinery, and it should be said that every customer assumes the parts and service are low end.

Drive and cam shafts, bearing sleeves, rebuilds and reworks are all still unmatched in quality and remain largely american. Waiting 4 months for pajeet or Mr wong to float the parts over from a scrapyard masquerading as a machine shop versus sending a skilled onsite mechanical maintenance tech to rebuild an excavator blade or bucket sleeve is a no brainer.

Petroleum and mining industries have zero tolerance for a service or product without a stateside relationship

I agree with the content of your comment but you didn't need to add the racist comment about Asians (bruh, us Pajeets and Wongs are Americans as well. Write that same sentence with the N word and see how racist it is).

A program about fixing or maintenance on some heavy machinery in Australia: https://youtube.com/watch?v=J0BRlFMK0lY

Terrible scripting and faked moments, but still interesting for the good and the bad.
