| Just curious, anyone know where there is a machine shop in the Puget Sound area where I can do my own milling or that rents out CNC machines? I found lots of machine shops, just no where that I can do the machining myself. |

I'd say if your getting into a mill for under a grand your either cutting corners or getting a helluva deal. My mill was bought at 50% of retail and it cost me around $5k. No CNC capabilities involved. Then there's the perhiperal tools and tooling. But I digress. If you've the skill to write the required programs and set up a machine to get the job done, I would clearly be preaching to a choir member. I have done some 0% lowers and they were a bitch frankly, but I digress.
I'd say if you are willing to pay shop rate for using my mill with my supervision, you could use my machinery if you understand that if you break something you need to pay for it or replace it. Also any injury or liability are your responsability. |
