Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, the southbends work, and i know we are in pretty good shape, but the machines get backed up quickly, so additional machines would be nice. And one day, i'm sure we won't be able to keep repairing the old stuff either :-/

We got a Miller Tig/Arc (i think it is a syncrowave model) last year, works GREAT.

I'll look into the HAAS equipment, don't know much about them. I've used only Bridgeport and Southbend since high school :-)

(ok, some delta and dewalt wood tools also :-)
