We've been talking about selling the milling machine and using the space for other things. A printer might be one of them.
my friend who has been into 3d printers for years told me about Prusa, they're a good quality machine with pretty much automatic set up, and a large forum community, i got the mini+, and like it a lot, the only complaint i have is the size of object you can print, but i did get the smaller unit, i'm about to get an i3, which has a bed slightly more than twice the size of my mini.... :shock:

Metal additive? I would love to have access to something like that!

The company my brother works for ordered the Modix Big 120z. I won't be able to play with that one either.

good one are hard to find, i have thought of picking a smelter for the shop though...
The space it takes up is valuable too. And in the last few years even before covid we meet a good shop owner that is as meticulous as we are so any prototyping and production has been there. And he's super close so we can go there and work things out.

Not my pic but same one in the shop.


Takes up a lot of room.

CNC style yeah they do take up some room, ours are manual straight up 3 axis style early LAGUN republic.....

imo really sit down and consider keeping it, kind of a pain in the ass when your working on something and you need it right now kind of stituation

It's not like that at the shop. It was only for prototypes. And we don't do any walk-in work so if it's not on the list it's not needed.

If you think of each square foot as a dollar sign......the space can make more money changed. We've had lots of stuff that was sold so something more profitable can be there.

It's also only me right now. If it would ever be needed they are out there to buy.
