Terry,
Point taken but this hobby encompasses many views.
I get round to quite a few workshops when doing the CNC training and believe me they are not all sheds in the backs of gardens with a Sieg X3 mill in them and I’m not talking about just the CNC brigade.
I have been in custom built workshops that can put university and development labs to shame and believe me it’s not just an odd one.
One guy I visited had the whole of his custom bungalow built on top of his workshop, he’d bought two Bridgeport’s so one could always have a vise on and one had a dividing head on
Remember even if you shop cheap you will spend X 2 on tooling over a short while.
There must be a market for the Golmatic or they wouldn’t stay in business. We need a broad band of what’s available or how can you dream
