 I haven't been negative about any FIRST game yet, but scaling and cleaning fish in 2009 that were used in 2008 is going to stink. Literally. :P

Re: $5000 for machining equipment. How far will it get us?
Id say, order of preference:
Drill press Band saw Bridgeport Lathe If you have money to spend, and you have time, check for local auctions. Machine shops frequently close down, and you can buy good equipment for 1/10 the normal price. at auctions I have seen: Floor standing drill press: $150 Large band saws: $400 Bridgeport with all attachments (manually operated): $500 Metal Lathe: $500 Last edited by KenWittlief : 05-02-2006 at 22:56. |
