The first thing on the programme is the morning briefing with my trainers about the tasks ahead.

We prepare the workshop for daily work.

Now it's time to start machining the workpieces on the lathe or milling machine. I mainly produce accessories for our moulds.

During my break, I fortify myself and chat to my work colleagues.

After a brief consultation with the instructors about the progress of the work so far, I continue with other workpieces.

I machine other die accessories and my trainers give me practical tips to optimise the turning/milling processes.

I tidy up my workstation, sort out the tools I've used and clean the machine.

My working day is over and I'm looking forward to my evening off.
