Nice Try!

WWII offered women many jobs that were done by men who left for war.
In this rare color photo we have a woman worker in a machineshop setting running a #3 Warner&Swasey semi-automatic production turret lathe. In this picture,there is no workpiece,no cutting tools and the lack of tool coolant that drenched you and the machine as you operated it. The work on this machine was highly repetitive as you did functions manually the the computer numerical control machines do by their specific programming languages automatically. This particular machine is much too clean to have ever been run,evidenced by the lack of staining on the rear turret assembly and fingerprints in the dust settled onto the machine surface near her left hand of what would be an oily surface from minute one of startup
