I can machine anything to spec, tolerances that would make a young guy weep, decades of feel in my hands. But the shop is quieter every year, the old-timers retiring, no young people coming up to learn it.

More people experience this than they realize.
You can machine anything to spec, but grieve a craft fading faster than you can pass it on.
