Never done that at home. At work the machines have more hours on them when
there is no one there then they do while there are people there. 99.9% of
the time every thing is fine. 0.1% of the time something breaks and scraps
out a part. Happens while people are there also.....

Know a couple of people who burned down their shops with EDM machines.
Other then that, nothing worse then a scrapped out part and a few broken
tools.

The company has no rule stating the machine needs to be turned off when
no one is there and as far as I know there is no government law stating you
need to do that. I have no rule agianst doing that. The people I work with
have no rule agianst that. Not my problem what rule some one else wants to
follow in their shop.

> e. rules are made to be broken

Is that a rule ? :)
