Doesn't that piss you off! happens at my place of work all the time. Not machining but same type pf bullshit with jigs. "Oh I made 200 frames on that jig, it is perfect" only to find it a 1/2" out of square. Then you got to send some out to inspect those 200 frames and find were the jig started to get out of square and spend the rest of the day fixing them... And people wonder why I am short tempered!
