That voice again...it's Trump again pretending that he can manipulate a Press and treating gummy bears the way he treats all women. Alert the MSNBC campaign minions. This is not pretty.
Worked in a small factory in South San Francisco. Made Styrofoam surfboards and some kind of water wings for kids. Basically, Styrofoam beads filled mold, prees compresses, steam melts it all together.
Machines all automatic, so you need good timing to fill mold and retrieve finished product by hand.
One guy had bad timing, head squashed while he attempted to clear "something". Glad I was off that night.
BTW, guys on amphetamines generally running three or four machines instead of usual one or two. Then quit after firt paycheck.

Deadman switch. It takes two hands to operate the switch. Remove one hand and the press stops. They took the plexiglass shield off so they could film the carnage. I've seen older flywheel presses with a modern press brake snap the crankshaft when the brake kicked in. Accent? What accent?

"We're gonna need a bigger press."
I couldn't have said it better.
Or... in the words of Donald Trump, "You like your candy."
Barack: If you like your candy, you can keep your candy.
Michelle: Ha ha. Here, have a carrot.

One should not operate a press while that high.
Some academic with too much time on his hands.

So even Gallagher can be replaced by a machine.
I think Letterman did that in the 80s

That was one damn huge gummy bear.
