The Advantages of Hand Scraping
There are several advantages of hand scraping tools, such as:
- Flatness: It maintains a machine tooling’s flatness to prevent rocking and chattering, improve balance, and create true flatness in machined components.
- Accuracy: It maintains a machine’s accuracy by aligning its components within millionths of an inch, so the parts produced adhere to the tightest tolerances.
- Aesthetics: Hand scraping improves the aesthetics of the machine, giving it an attractive texture.
- Oil pockets: Hand scraping also creates oil pockets that hold oil on mated surfaces and allow smooth gliding motion between them. If a machine doesn’t have these pockets, mating surfaces will stick together.
- Longevity: Hand scraping and alignment maintain the consistency, accuracy, and longevity of the machine.

What is the manufacturing outlook for Morgantown West Virginia?
Morgantown, West Virginia’s manufacturing outlook for 2025 is cautiously optimistic. Despite challenges like the closure of Viatris’ Mylan plant, which eliminated 1,400 jobs, growth is anticipated with Mountain Top Beverage expanding its Morgantown facility, boosting local production. The state’s manufacturing sector is projected to grow by 0.7% annually through 2026, led by aerospace and food sectors, though chemical subsectors lag due to past closures. Population decline and labor force participation issues pose risks, but infrastructure improvements and new industrial projects suggest potential for modest growth in the coming years.
