Nope.

But I’ve been around long enough to have seen designers/draftsmen get replaced by CAD/CAM.

As well as machinists reduced to tool changers.

Are there any vocational school educators reading this able to shed some more light on the subject?

I run a business with 5-axis CNC machines - does that qualify me?

Without a SKILLED machinist these robots are dead meat. Skill is hard to come by straight out of vocational school. The local College has a good program but they teach on 9 year old machines and those are...antiquated.

Your comments are equvalent to Mike Bloomberg disparaging farmers with the "throw a seed in the ground and water it - whats so hard about that?

You seem to have a similar degree of ignorance. Its not graceful.

Sorry but I deal with stupid everyday. Just because you can draw it or model it on CAD doesn’t make it -
-Producible
-Correct

CAD just brings stupid and bad designs “to a whole notha level”.
