[QUOTE="bullitt2735, post: 17039142, member: 82002"] Meh I see the other side of it, (I'm in my mid 30's for reference but do a lot of skilled manual machining all the way up through designing and programming 6 axis robots) I work in power plant generator manufacturing and a lot of those skilled trades can be done with robotics. It will definitely hurt the small mom and pop operations but so much can transfer to new modern machinery. Even sheet metal forming art that is dieing can be 3d formed from a cad file. I have seen a terrible decline in machine/electrical/industrial repair and maintenance though. So many old guys are ready to retire and too burnt out to teach the younger guys, the guys in the middle of the career don't care because the union protects them, and the younger guys that actually do want to learn get burnt out because they get little to no guidance or apprenticeship.
