I Say... Two Quality Assurance Stories

I wrote this a few years back off-the-job for the local ASQ section. This is based upon two stories from my father's foundry days.

Hopefully, I can convince some of my MC550 students to post their student projects in coming months.

Good tale, Steve... You don't ask if we have 20 Lb sledgehammers in our operations, you ask where we have them. I think that is very prudent: We all have them in one form or another. I have seen a few examples myself.

With your permission I will use your writing as an eye opener over here. I'm convinced it will bring some of our own tales out in the open.

Also, please tell your students that we really would like to hear about their projects.
