I like using the bigger pieces of machinery, like the big saws. They were daunting at first, but once you've been trained on them and know how to use them, they're quite cool to use. They make the work a lot quicker and more efficient.
I’m an Engineering Manufacturing Technician at Capula in Stone. My job involves building control panels and cabinets that are used in power plants and nuclear sites across the UK. The cabinets are metal boxes which are full of terminals, relays, wires and different components. We use packs containing all the power supplies and parts that we need and follow the engineer’s drawings and plans to connect the parts and assemble the panels, which are later installed on site. It’s a mix of mechanical and electrical work, and no two days are the same!
