      I agree a regular is not going to be rebuilding engines everyday or most of the time doing a lot of machining.

      But I agree it is important that they have some exposure to it and is important that they at least understand the process so when they do get something back from a machine shop they can tell if it is right. Or even being able to tell if a new part is within tolerances. Nothing worse than installing something and then finding out afterwards it was wrong (and making the customer bring it back) where a simple inspection/measurement could have prevented that, but that requires some understanding of what is involved.
