01.01.2022 Mad scramble to complete this order. Custom bronze 1.5 inch BSP barrell unions for local crew. The bigger picture here is our team. Skilled guys who put in the hours (the many, many, many hours), pick up the slack and never let the team down. We are so lucky to have them. #rankinandbond #teamwork #latheworkers #instamachinist #bronzemachining #manualmachinist #manualmachineshop #manualmachining #manufacturing #workshoplife #machinistlife #machinistsofinstagram #launcestonsmallbusiness #oldschoolworkshop #oldschoolmachining #bronzefittings
