A machinist toolmaker is involved with the manufacture of machined components
relating to various kinds of industry. There are no limits to the variety of
projects a machinist toolmaker may be involved with: making prototypes, tools
for production, engineering changes on parts, etc. This work involves
critical thinking, decision making, math skills, and working cooperatively
with others. Machinist toolmakers are capable of operating all the various
machine tools in a machine shop. They also must be able to interpret
