i might buy a cnc mill this week...

@FascistFather dood

cool

what for

btw dont go low end

low end cnc is literally worthless

nuerous pet prodjects, patents, prototypes, and contract work

my dad bought a cnc from like 2000 and it was totally a waste of money

the precision was so bad

@FascistFather so guns?

or like

what

what are you making

this is a $20k machne.

thats not high enough

my dad's machine was 15k i think

Can you get swastikas etched onto stuff

machine, used. decent brand. ran it before. 20 tool magazine

you buy a good one, you're set for like 70 years

well if you've played with it, and it's good, nevermind

i know my school's mill is from the 90s and the cnc stuff is from like 2015

and it's fantastic

my buddy has more than me. it will be slow starting

what are you making

bike parts, gun parts. different piece work for manufacturing

mmm

ATF no bully

maybe some niche stuff like custom dice for nerds

i dont remember the name of the company

but some company that makes tools

holy moly

they ship in like 12 hours

and the tools are whacko

compensators and muzzle brakes mostly. no atf problems

machine shop stuff is so fun

I don't trust advanced tools

@Bero but you do trust your mom to take care of you for the next decade?

Implying

get a job, hippie

the manual for the thing is on my external hard drive. cant remember the brand, but the guy paid like 14k or so for it used. trying to scoop it for 6-7k

I'm not a hippie I'm a beatnik
