Made it to 50 machine hours without a single crash this week

I hit 50 straight machine hours on my Haas VF-2 over at Precision Machining in Denver with zero crashes. That's a personal best for me after coming back from a bad tool holder slip back in March. Felt good to just watch the chips fly clean and steady for a change. Has anyone else kept a clean streak going for a while and how do you track it?

Congrats man, that's a solid run. I know how good it feels to finally get a clean streak going after a crash shakes your confidence.

Yeah my buddy had the exact same thing happen last season. He was crushing it every weekend then one lowside at turn 3 and he couldn't even look at his bike for a month without shaking. Talk about a MASSIVE mental block. Finally got back out there and strung together three clean sessions and said it was like flipping a switch for his whole mindset.
