Hey your channel popped up on my feed, I'm a 37 year old in my 4th year as an apprentice cnc machinist. I want you to know this testimony really touched me. I go to college and work full time, I don't have a car and walk an hour to work and back each day and pay for a ride with the little money I have to get to school. I hope everything works out. But thx alot this really inspired me alot!
I'm 35, trying to get my life on track. Am learning metal fabrication. Stay faithful,..
41 years old, in my 3rd year. LET'S KEEP MAKING THOSE CHIPS, YO.
@@isorokudono just started classes last week, what's the pay like for entry level?
38 here and starting my machinist apprenticeship as my 2nd career. Excited but at same uncertain of my path
@@Steven-dj2cy Hey im 40 now and I can say a few things to you. 1 its changed my life, but that might be because I always had bad jobs before this one. 2 you will never be.out of work again. I have moved jobs twice in these years and can basically name my price. 3 the price is either too small or our economy is so bad that im not saving anything instead staying in the black.
Spent 4 years in prison after a failed home invasion. I was a degenerate alcoholic, lost wandering aimlessly in life. After leaving prison I was in a halfway house and picked up the newspaper and on the front page was a small article about federal funding for a CNC course offered to anyone but mostly parolees. I made it my mission to get into that class and I did with state grants. I graduated top of my class and was hand picked by a shop to start training as a CNC production machinist. That was 5 years ago starting at 11$/hr, I am now close to 20 working as 2nd shift supervisor and teaching first shift at the same school I graduated from 5 years ago. I just hope you know how much this channel and your testimony has been a HUGE inspiration for me over the last 5 years.
God is good all the times, Titan.....
First time watching this video. I went through the same life even been shot and homeless been put down abusing alcohol etc. My wife of 18 years saved my life and been machining for 12 years. Titan you are an angel and been blessed with powers to motivate and help people.
I have been a machine operator and a welder/ fabricator for around 10 years and always thought welding was my passion until about 3 years ago when i started on a komo cnc router. I had to teach myself about G and M codes and how to write programs and sence then cnc has been my passion! I got injured a year ago and am still regaining the use of my right arm and hand witch has put me out of work. This past year has felt like my life is over because of it. Watching your vlog's and hearing you story has given me hope! You sir are an inspiration!!!! Thank you and God bless.
I am speechless. I've been watching Titan do his thing for a good while on running machines, making parts etc but I never knew anything like this took place until now. Amazing to see this side of Titan's journey. Probably one of the best motivational speeches I've ever seen. Awestruck
Brother, I never comment on videos, but I gotta tell you this hit me hard! I was just surfing around watching tutorial videos on Mastercam and this video popped up. I honestly cried as I was watching it. I am in the middle of loosing everything and looking in a million different directions for my next step (kind of the way you were) and you helped ease my mind.
Best of luck to you in all that you do!
Prayers for you, @25th Hour Design I just read your comment this morning and the Lord laid it upon my heart to pray for you. I hope you've been able to overcome your hardships over the past couple of years. God bless you.
I worked as CNC Machinist for almost 5 years and got laid off due to shortage of work because of Covid-19. This video gave me so much hope and inspired me a lot.
what job should i get to avoid that?
I am not a believer BUT I respect who believes! This was probably the best testemony of life that I ever seen, I even dropped a few tears... I am going to share it!
Great but you are a beliver becouse you speak with faith.
If you would not belive in what you are saying you could not live becouse you would be contradicting yourself.
So you know God but you deny him.
HugoHugo Martins you look young...don’t waste your life...seek God early in your life so you will have a good life not regrets later. Peace!
@@fml5910 Its hard for God to Deny
@@dakotadagostino5358 ok
Tears out of eyes.... Glory to God
Tears, goosebumps and above all HOPE !!!
I have got a new hope !!! Thank you, Titan!
Hey Titan, I appreciate you using this platform as a witness. My wife and I own a CNC machine shop in here Minnesota and praise God we have all the work we can do! Thanks for what you're doing for our trade.
Hello there. I'm new to working in the CNC production environment. It's such a wonderful industry. I'm a retired watchmaker, but finances forced me to return to the workforce. I'm learning that the industry is full of really great people, and if you're a motivated, self-determined person, you can really do well in this industry. Any advice for a middle-aged, autistic, and fairly high iq worker? I'm used to running desktop scale machines with 4" plunge depths, and now I'm running machines with automatic tool changes, the size of a car! It's wonderful but I'm scared!
This video brought tears to my eyes. After 20 years of dead-end jobs and searching for a purpose. I applied and got hired to a local cnc shop. I've been soaking all your videos like a sponge and joined the academy. Look forward to finally reaching my potential. Definitely would be a dream to one day work with you. God bless
Hello MK2, I just read your comment and while it’s been a year, I hope all is well on your journey with machining ! Be well ! Shawn
I'm 31, your testimony shows me how long life is in these mid-years, and how MUCH MORE I can create. Your story shows me life continues on even after you've won the game of life, its then about building up people around you to become better. This is the way of Christ. Thank you for this Titan. I'm sending this to a motivated young man, I hope your story reaches him as it did me.
What an incredible story. So glad that you found the Lord. He's been there through the darkest hours of my life too brother.
Great testimony! "Lean not to your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your paths" proverbs. Keep up HIS good work!
Titan, you have given me my mojo back for machining and life. I was down and out gave up on myself and the trade but watching your programming demos and personal story has made a world of difference to me today. Thank you sir, keep on keeping on.
Im a missionary kid and preachers kid. Had no idea what to do in life career wise. I literally fell into machining 30 years ago. After 5 layoffs, multiple shops, and people asking me why Im not a preacher like dad, I have to say cuz God made me a machinist!
Great message Titan! God bless you!
Love your Testimony Bro.Titan, let the Lord use you!! Been in the manufacturing world 14 years, I pray I get my chance to elevate to being an owner!!
Has to be one of the greatest life stories we’ve heard can feel it’s from the heart
So powerful. I’ve watched this many times and shared as well. Thankyou Sur for this incredible Testimony.
His Path
Imagine if all inmates around the world became skilled workmen and be given a second chance in life
They used to have those opportunities. For generations prisons would offer all sorts of training and job opportunities. But they started taking almost all of it away because the trades use tools and people would use those tools as weapons or use the shop to make weapons. It's unfortunate because a lot of guys wanted the training and more than that they wanted to pass the time being useful. They still have jobs and some even pay but real training for serious trades has unfortunately been removed for the most part. When I was in the joint I was one of the head cooks and made 22 cents an hour. One of the best jobs in the prison.
@@bryanblack505 Like the woodshop in shawshank redemption
@@Mr.Potato420 ya exactly. Now back then they had all sorts of opportunities. The conditions were much harsher but so was all life back then I suppose. Wood shop, metal shop, machine worker (license plate makers) along with outside work crews such as woodland fire fighter and forestry services were very common in state pens around the country. They still have fire camp to this day. I got to do some time at a fire camp and during the winter/off season we would do jobs the rangers needed done such as cutting down dead and dying trees, pulling weeds, and such. Then during the fire season/summer we would fight woodland fires. That's the best example of a trade you can still learn in the joint. Especially since the "hotshots" are a federal crew you can get hired with them when you get out (since federal government allows the hiring of felons). I did it for a small time but then went back to the joint :/
Thank you Gilroy. I'm 41, black (not that it matters at all),lost,and lost a parent that was my anchor and I'm trying to grow. If anyone reads this I'll take any advice. I have endless fight and grit in me. Please pray for me
I lost someone very close and it hit me hard. I don't know if I have any advice except don't give up. Tell whomever you can how you feel when you feel down but the next day you do whatever it takes to put one foot in front of the other. I can say It does get better. Use this opportunity to rebuild yourself into something better and new. It will take all you have but it will be worth it. Good luck.
Such a powerful testimony. I had no idea of the trials that Titan had to go through.
I am lost on how can any human give this a thumbs down... We are here for a purpose many of us will not be RICH, but we can make a difference in somebodies life... WE all know what do , we have a selfish gene that just makes things messy in our lives. As humans we have to do better.. We seek for things that is not purposely built for you. It took me years to be cool with that theory .
Just want to say brother, you have inspired me and my journey with Jesus to push further in the parts arena and continue to build my first cnc to get into this world of making parts, thank you, God bless.
I have to say that everything I've posted on of yours lately has touched me. This is all of those vlog's in one shot and it has some good little snip-its that wasn't in the others. I'm struggling still and I'm at a crazy junction of cross roads that goes in so many directions sometimes I just close my eye's and guess. I'm struggling in many ways but these help me to try and stay on the right path. Thanks for posting this kind of content up and even though I haven't been on the academy forums for some time I still get the updates and enjoy what I do read there. Thanks for not giving up and for doing what you do!!
When I clicked this video to see it's 42 minutes long, I thought I'd watch the first 90 seconds of this and skip to the next but you got me hooked till I wrote this to you. You are now, one of my inspiration and I hope to meet you in person before either of us die. Until then I'll keep watching your videos while you keep making great deeds.
It’s All His path... Thanks Brother🙏
I've only just watched this and just when I thought I couldn't respect this man as much as I do you go and open up so much and my respect has just being over whelmed and sir you are an inspiration to me and to many who have been through hard times but have used such things as cnc to help overcome it. I'm salute you and just like everyone here and everywhere am proud of you and your achievements in life
Thank you Brother ... We are Qualified because of what we have gone through...
Titan
beautiful testimony and great story where everything is from that great example I admire him a lot titan 🙏🏻
wow! finding your videos is the start. I too started a journey 3 years ago, starting with losing my mom my best friend, then i few months later my wife left, the following year my job from down sizing, getting a new job. Then 6 months later Covid hit getting just enough to pay the bills.
Depression hit not having enough, my dad got sick dealing with his illness, trying to keep strong my shoulders getting tired. Last year things slowly turning around. Built a woodworking cnc, having the opertunity to work things out with my wife. Then today came your videos! I too am intese , you started my ambition to go do anything like i have done in the path to happiness. Thankyou for ignighting my spark!!
I am always impressed by what you have shared and brought back to manufacturing Titan. I believe that you truly are part of a new renaissance in American manufacturing. Thank you for sharing your life stories, the good and the bad. I hope to open my own shop in the future and one of my life goals is to meet you in person, because you are TRULY INSPIRATIONAL.
Titan, You are my hero dude
Inspirational stories like these NEED to be shared! Although I've never personally been to prison, I have close friends who have been/still are. Your story gives people hope, and your life is PROOF that there truly is a "light at the end of the tunnel" after prison! Your work, your life, and your stories are TRULY priceless!!! Thanks for sharing your life with the world!
You truly are an inspiration TITAN. When I saw you for the first time here on UA-cam I felt that energy right away. You pump me up to continue to look at life in a positive way and to become the best I can be at machining. God Bless you and your family always. Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do.
Thank you Titan for your testimony and for letting God use you, your videos inspire me to better my small business and to push further.
Regards, Arthur from Brazil
I remember being put off by the early episodes Titan put out, thinking it was over the top. But lately the Lord reminded me of them and I wondered what happened to him. Then UA-cam started recommending his videos again at a time I needed some advice from and manual machining standpoint. Then I see this this video and the title "testimony", thinking to myself it's just a promo talk for his company. And then I realise he's genuine. That what started out rough has had the corner's knocked off and now God truly gets the glory. Thank You Jesus for what You've done and for raising people like him up.
Thanks Brother
Hard work and honesty always pays off.
What a story life... That's why your're BIG!! Great Respect from Portugal and for your work. I'm starting your Learning Program with Fusion. THANKS A LOT!!
Sem duvida
I'm Jewish, and your video inspires me greatly !
I wish i saw this 4 years ago. I used to work in engineering 2009 to 2012 but it was never my passion, i turned 30 this month and just started teaching myself to tig weld off youtube and came across your machining videos and somehow developed an immense passion for machining just by seeing the possibilities🤔 i never saw a future for myself as a machinist in the shop i worked at. The staff where never pushed or taught anything more than they needed in order to meet targets, and we ran the most basic setup, (Coal cutter teeth) We where just organic robots running inorganic machines making minimum wage. I wish i had a father, mentor or boss like you growing up.
Nobody can told an audience like this guy he really knows how to tell his story
Such an incredible story, thank you so much for the inspiration!
i'm a novice and i'm still learning about this world, its hard, yes but im in love with this machines because i can make everything i can imagine come true,i found this channel yesterday and i can say that this was a batch of fresh air and inspiration, thank you a lot man and keep the good work
Your story is a huge rock for some of us to keep climbing.
For someone that's not a professional public speaker that was very dynamic and inspiring. I saw the vlog first about the beginning and now I'm here watching the whole story. Proof that in this country you can succeed even when everything is against you if you only will.
My respects to this Gentleman.
i cried. inspirational. Thank you Father for Titan.
I was a programmer, I used Mastercam. I also improved efficiency, receiving 13 raises at $1.00 each in a matter of 2 years.
@Nick A lol chill
You’re a good man. Giving hope and keeping manufacturing alive and thanking god in the process. Keep it up
You've got an inspiring story and an energizing presence. Thanks for sharing.
I don't know why I started watching this but listening to your message and your trials and tribulations you are truly blessed by God because it spoke to me having been there and now face my biggest challenge my very life at steak with out hope wanting to give up but I'm sitting listening to you and all I can say is thank God and thank you Titan your my hero!
Hey Titans, somewhere in Africa, all this amazing machines are hard to come by. But I am fortunate to get my hands on one CNC machine. It is my first time but I’m feeling the connection and I’m loving it. It is my dream to meet you in person one day.
I was wondering why you put so much in your Academy all for free. Now I know, this video explains it all. You are truly God sent to inspire.
Inspired, motivated and ready for my next journey. Many thanks Titan.
Thanks for sharing your testimony. I run a CNC Lathe for a sucker rod manufacturer (oil and gas).
I am a believer, I am an amateur product designer, I tried learning cad but stuck to my old school drafting and send my drawings out to be cnc machined, I thank the lord for using you to impact lives and being an inspiration to me and thousands of people and as you continue to bless people may the lord bless you a thousand folds. Greetings from the U.K.
Thanks Brother... you can learn CAD easily in a day on my Free academy.titansofcnc.com
Damn man. You have brought me to tears!!
I was extremely touched by this video. You are truly amazing, and inspire me!!! Im a mechanical engineer at amazon and love machining, parts, electronics, etc. Been watching your other technical vids for awhile, but just saw this one. Wow!!! And only 105k views?! Cant wait till this goes viral.
watching all your machining videos and absorbing your wonderful personality. Watching this puts so much perspective on who you are, thank you for everything.
A truly inspiring story. Incredible.
Thanks for sharing. And boy you know what the baptism of fire is ! I wish I had met straight people like you instead of jerks. Speaking for myself I have always reckoned that we have to be the world we want to see, so I set an example, but got trampled on for my gentleness. But that is the Gospel Way for you - the way of undefended love.
I’m going to be honest, I have nothing to do with machining or engineering, I wish I did but life took me other places. I wound up here because I was looking on google for how to use citric acid on stainless steel for a project. But I somehow got here and listened to this whole testimony without pause. You are still a ‘heavyweight fighter’, Titan; I think through all the trials you have overcome over the years God wanted to show you just how much you can handle and grow and just… do. God bless you (still!). I cried and I oddly needed this testimony today.
Very inspiring man. Inspired me to improve my cycle times! BOOM
Titan. Thank you for sharing your journeys. God Bless you You are a great inspiration
God promises us that in life we will have trials of various kinds, and that we can consider these joy, because they will test our faith in ways that produces endurance - all along the way until we are complete. This is so touching to see Titian make such a powerful testimony about becoming a new creature in Christ, and dedicating his life to serve the God he loves by touching others with this powerful message of hope and redemption! I've never had the pleasure to meet this man of God, but love you my brother in Christ and how you honor our Awesome God!
Ps 119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.
I've been watching occasionally without subbing as there's hundreds one could sub to. Tonight I watched your octopus sculpture and heard you mention faith, then this video was next in my feed. Earned my sub through that testimony, awesome.
How does that happen? By the grace of God!! You are God Blessed Titan! Always give HIM the praise and glory!
Man you are great you change my life forever you just dont know how much you change me You'r AWESOME
Thanks for checking the testimony out... We are strengthened and qualified for what we go through...
This video right here. Deserves more views, people need to watch this.
Simply amazing!! Bringing a huge smile to my face! 😁
Titan you are living proof that "good men can do great things "
Thanks Titan God Bless you forever. The best I was hearing and giving so much hope to so many people thanks for your power to continue and not to giving up your hopes. Your the very best Titan
May God keep on blessing you Titan! You just changed my life after watching this video. Thank you!
This is so awesome… I spent about 10 years in an active drug addiction, in and out of jails and institutions. I lost everything. I finally came to Mobile Alabama, and went to rehab. While I was in the rehab, I saw a job add on Craigslist at a local Machine Shop that needed help. I interviewed and got the job as an operator. They trained me, got me up to speed. It’s been 2 1/2 years now…. I am doing my own set ups. Some of my own programming. Editing G Code, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.. I’ve learned so much, and I am so IN LOVE with the trade. I have had over $10 dollars worth of raises in 2 years. I am so thankful, and so blessed. Thank you for your story Titan. I hope someone sees my comment…. And sees my story. CNC machining is so amazing.
Powerful stuff, big respect to Titan
Every heart pounding Moment makes us grow bigger and better
Inspirational big fella, you got to have faith, the great man does not miss anything and always has a purpose for us all, loved your story.... god bless.
God bless you sir..
This is a powerful testimony . Never give up on any one, the power to make a difference and change once life is within all of us. Just imagine. Thank you for the video.
Hey Titan I just started following you and God Bless you bro.
Keep on doing what you do and always walk with your head high bro.
Titan, I came across your channel a few days ago while searching for a way to help teach some of my coworkers how to write programs and run our new Haas mill. Within the first few minutes of that video, without knowing any of your background, I saw a man who had the kind of experience to give people inspiration and the motivation to be successful. Hearing your journey has been the most powerful 45 minute experience of my life and has given me the motivation and drive I needed to grind through the next few semesters of my mechanical engineering degree and pursue my dream of owning a cnc machine shop. Thanks for making this channel, and keep those spindle loads at 200% man!
Thank you 🙏
Words can not express how inspired I am wright now after leasing and watching your Testimony this morning. It has motivated me to set new goals to go out and help others, God Bless, and may one day get to personally thank you,,Bear @ Bears Rod Shop, TX.
Pumped me up Titan been killing it at the shop for some time thanks dude.
More people need to see testimonies like the one Titan has shared. God works through testimonies and people like Titan
Inspiring story, keep spreading the message, and inspiring people to do much more with what they have been given.
I just started a course in Machine tooling and got a job CNC’ing surgical tools. The amount of information there is when it comes to machining is astounding! I can just hope, that I can learn a fraction of what this guy knows. Amazing 😉
Just stick with it and watch all my Vlogs... there is serious info stacked in them.
TITANS of CNC: Academy thanks brotha ;)
However am long way up like that way ,stills am like that failed, failed ,failed ,still am waiting God's to help ,am aloneness ,
powerful story titan! i love your style!!
As a Manual and CNC Machinist going on 2 years, I have to say that your channel has inspired me. You've inspired me to start a small business. I've always wanted to gunsmith, even as a youngling, and at 21 years old I have an opportunity to start buying tools and equipment on the side to start. Your business tips will certainly come in handy, Titan. Rock on man.
thanks titans you have helped me alot
Mr.Boom I have been your follower since last couple of years.
I watched so many of your teaching videos . I am still learning from you I will keep learning from you.
But this video is not about learning it's about humanity.
You are doing a great humanity job Mr.Boom
May God bless you and your family many more healthy wealthy peaceful future years to continue this great work.
Thank you for testimony brother🙏 I went threw similar situations in my life. Going on 4 years working with cncs. Love it. Just getting started on programming. Thank you for your channel and knowledge. God bless you and your family. And may your business be the top dog in the industry. God bless you brother 🙏
Titan I also want to say thank you sir for this video, To be a witness for the lord has become so rare anymore. there are so many people lost walking around looking for a direction to turn, its so hard to go from the bottom to the top when your looking at bars. thank you for being a great example for us to follow!!!!!
It’s His Path... Will always Proudly Speak of All HE has done... He is the reason I am doing all of this... period.
brother I am very encouraged what God has done in your life
I know this video is 5 years old i have just found it it's as powerful today as it was when you made it 👍
With out a doubt it's the most powerful video i have ever watched it's so inspiring
Take care stay safe and may God bless you always 🇬🇧🙋🏻♂️
Wow… absolutely inspiring. Much respect to you Titan. Absolutely awesome man.
So Inspiring Titan!
AWESOME!!!!
Thank you for telling your story. My story is similar. I'm 24 training too be a programmer right night. I have 2 yrs manual mill, and 4 years on a prototrack 3-axis mill. I now training on SOLIDWORKS and making programs on Edge cam. I love your videos. They have absolutely ignited a new passion for machining. I'm a 3rd generation Tool & Die maker and I believe with the approach and mindset you have used, will help me take myself and my company further than I could have imagined. Thank you, I'm very appreciative and grateful your the person you are. Have a great day.
Such an inspiration.
Love your motivated positive style.
Your raw life infused with hope.....
Priceless!
Inspiring 👌👌was watching movies about new systems of tools storage and this video pop up! Thanks for your honest testimony. I was familiar with you already from other videos but did not know your life story, inpiring man.
Praise God brother, thank you Jesus! Thank you for being transparent and giving God the Glory!
