Shifting Landscape of Technology Is a Never-Ending Education
Brent Donaldson, Senior Editor, Modern Machine Shop and Additive Manufacturing Magazine discusses how the shifting landscape of technology that all of Gardner’s writers and editors cover is a never-ending education.

As I continue writing and reporting for AM and MMS, it’s easy to imagine how these technologies’ interdependency will continue to grow.

I’m grateful to be part of it.
