Agree, it's only 2 at night and already everyone has gone of to bed ? :-)
Think this is good though, you need to be fully awake when operating these
powerful machines.
Making a mistake can damage machine and/or operator.
When operating my machine I always make sure it has got my full attention.
And never drink and drive or operate a milling machine!!!
OT: I saw a youtube video some time ago with a few guys who created a kind
of fairground attraction with a chair mounted to a 6-axis robot.
I think this is insane. One wrong move or a glitch in the system may damage
the person riding the attraction.
Always use proper safety measures when working on a mill, a lathe or a 6-DOF
robot!
And yes, I'm a piker too. I once saw a chuck flying by, hitting a hole in a
steel cupboard.
Since then I make sure I am safe in case the impossible becomes possible.
Walking into the work area of a bit (6 x 12 meters) 5 axis CNC milling
machine was not something I liked doing when making photos of my workpiece
under construction ...
(I was told the mill cannot reach below 1 meter from the ground so in case
of emergency just lie down)
