Re: To CNC? Or not to CNC?

Gui was right, CNC is a great step above where you are.

Team 116 has had a manual mill and lathe for years, and we just this past years got digital readouts for the mill. That makes it alot easier to use then counting revolutions of the handle.

A mill is a very useful tool, if you know how to use it. And if you know how to use it, it is almost as useful as a CNC. Dave has a rotary table that we borrowed (and didn't quite take real good care of ) and used to drop about a pound from our big sprockets fairly quickly.

You are welcome to come by our shop durring most any meeting and look at what we have and I or someone else can show you what we have and if you want, you're welcome to come and use our shop. We have an open shop policy.
