ahhh...no wonder it's not on the site. :P

The fab/machine shop I worked at only had one new machine.

Some of the stuff was so old the companies had been out of business for years and repairs were an issue, but the guy that owned the place would find people to fix them.

These were pretty large machines.

We had one vtl with a 4' table, and a couple of horizontal mills that did items that were 12' long

The new machine was a vertical mill called Mighty. [laugh]
