Mike and Pat discuss the CNC machined parts industry with president of Groth Manufacturing, John Groth. John vents his frustration at the lack of mechanical skills students have when leaving secondary education - lack of industrial arts programs. He discusses the benefits of computerized machining while also expressing the need to know how to do the job without the assistance of a computer. He says that all of theses skills can be taught on the job, and hopes young people who are mechanically inclined, who like to make things, will be attracted to the industry.
