    A worker's hands are handling metal brackets on a workbench in what appears to be a manufacturing or fabrication shop. Multiple brackets of similar shape are visible in different finishes — dark gray/black and olive/brass-colored — suggesting a comparison or assembly process. The workbench contains various small metal components and tools in the background.

    Tech. Sgt. Jason Felts, 19th Maintenance Squadron sheet metal production lead, compares an old hydraulic pump bracket to the new 3D printed version at Little Rock Air Force Base, Arkansas, June 4, 2020. The re-creation of the part acted as an opportunity to completely revamp the structure and strength of the part to decrease the amount of repairs that are needed over time.

    A worker's hands are handling metal brackets on a workbench in what appears to be a manufacturing or fabrication shop. Multiple brackets of similar shape are visible in different finishes — dark gray/black and olive/brass-colored — suggesting a comparison or assembly process. The workbench contains various small metal components and tools in the background.
    Two military personnel in camouflage uniforms are working at a large metal workbench inside a military structural maintenance shop. The facility is well-equipped with various industrial tools, machines, and equipment mounted on yellow support columns. A sign reading 'Structural Maintenance' with a tool display board is visible on the back wall.
    A technician or mechanic is performing maintenance work inside what appears to be a military aircraft, working on internal components within a fuselage access panel area. The individual is using a bent wrench or ratchet tool to work on fasteners or fittings among hydraulic lines and wiring bundles. Stenciled markings on the olive-drab interior panels indicate fuselage station references, consistent with military aircraft maintenance documentation.
    A person is holding a machined metal component in both hands, examining it closely in what appears to be a workshop or manufacturing environment. The part appears to be a precision-machined aluminum or steel bracket or housing with multiple cutouts and mounting holes. The background shows a blurred industrial workspace with various tools and equipment.
    A military maintenance technician is performing repair or inspection work inside what appears to be a military aircraft, likely a C-130 or similar transport aircraft. The worker is in a contorted position, reaching upward with a tool to access components on the interior wall or bulkhead. The environment shows typical military aircraft interior features including olive drab panels, hydraulic lines, and cargo floor tracks.
