What the heck is a world skills competition?

[Karl Corry]

Its a competition for different trades/jobs for people under 23. Heres a few of the trades carpenters, mechanics, cnc machining(me)and so on there is about 40 altogether. it's a chance for the best in each country to compete with the rest of the world.

It's hard to find a generic chart, most tool manufacturers have their own recommendations for their own tools per material. It can range greatly, based on tool material and part material.
