Working with CNC machines 10 years /help

[tdenlow]

Been working with CNC machines for about 10 years. Doing some programing. Medical procedure may keep me off my feet from now on. Any advice as to what schooling I should pursue. Given the economy etc. I am 33.

Where are you located? What type of parts were you working with most of the time? aerospace? molds?dies?general job shop? production?

How long will you be off your feet? how will you get arround?

I live in southern Indiana. I have a severed LFCN which is causing a lot of pain and is aggravated by standing on my feet. I run a Mori-sieki at this time, machining parts from raw metal. I do some programming but would like to advance in this field in a position where I am not on my feet continuously. I have done some supervision and some programming but need to learn more.

Don't know what will be the outcome of the severed nerve. Pain Management says it will bother me from now on and not much they can do.

Evansville. You must be near New Albany.

I am in New Albany. I am not sure how the best way would be to go about getting training to help you out. Are you able and willing to travel?

Sorry to take so long.

Can't take off work at this point. What do you have in mind.
