Funny. Nobody is wearing gloves, but I didn't see a single Bandaid on anyone's finger or hand. Not my experience in the sheet metal shop. 5 - 10 cuts per typical day. Quite informative.

Dry-as-a-bone vocational film about sheet metal work, that actually turns out to be fairly interesting. At least if you've never seen these guys work up close. They're quite talented. The film is intended to show you the various career possibilities, and the skills necessary to get the job. Contains loads of nice footage inside the factory.
