Just picked up a used CNC off of Ebay. Nice that it was local to me. I was able to go and see it run and bring it home myself. This will help me to make the transition to working from home much easier. I can now bring all my machined parts back "in house" The machine is a 4 axis with only 103 hours on it. Runs perfect. It wasn't cheap, but still priced right for my type of work.

I wasn't sure you had room for it in the back room, but you made it work. This is a sweet add to your tool crib. I see a hint of that 818 peeking through the door. Now it's time to reclaim all those programs for the parts. I hope you had enough help to move it in - it looks heavy.

That is a great setup. I have almost pulled the trigger on a Tormach several times. One of these days I'll actually get it.

Glad to see you found a good deal.

That is very cool. I wish I knew how to machine parts. If I need something can I send you a drawing? I would much rather give you my business than anyone else.

Thanks
Bill
