The joiners and machinists concerned wanted to continue work, but they were threatened with expulsion.

For example, a machinist must look at all the lines and edges on a detailed drawing and decide how to aggregate them into groups representing subgoals.
Typically, during the design of precision machines, engineers and skilled machinists develop several machine concepts and down select based on heuristics and past design experience rather than quantitative measures.
In general, the availability of well-trained machinists was quite limited and thus impacted negatively on production.
Although the engineering firms' lockout resulted in a decisive employer victory, the employers did not attempt to destroy all vestiges of the machinists' union.
Skilled machinists often sub-contracted their labor to raise sufficient money before purchasing spare parts from other factories.
They should no longer be "assemblers," "machinists," "fabricators," or "material handlers" - terms associated with the old, functional layout of the plant.
