Morris Educational Workshop & Cutting Demonstration Days

Join us for a weekly series of in-person workshops featuring live machine demonstrations and helpful discussions with our team. Each Thursday, we’ll focus on a different machining topic using Okuma and Tsugami machines. You’ll have the opportunity to watch live cuts, ask questions, and explore ways to get more out of your machines, tooling, and workholding setups.

Why Attend?

  • See live demonstrations on Okuma and Tsugami machines
  • Ask questions on the spot about tooling, workholding, or programs
  • Take home clear next steps you can apply to your own shop right away
  • Choose the dates that fit – register for one Thursday or several
