RE: [Awaiting Approval]
Retired 10 1/2 years ago after 30 years as a Tool and Die Maker. Last 17 were in the Auto industry building frame dies for AO Smith (Tower Automotive) MKE. Great place to work before Tower ran it into the ground and closed it.
Greatest thing that ever happened to me, Both working there and retireing. Just sorry for the other 5500 people who lost good paying jobs.
Now it's flying every day (that's Flyable).
6 months in Wisconsin and 6 in Arizona. Sure greatful I don't have to get up and go to work though.
Keep the greasy side UP
