no 1198s for me.

going to look at a mazak mill I found online tomorrow.

If it's good, I think I can buy it, ship it in (it's an hr away) and get it under power for less than $10k.

That would be the crown jewel in the Deal King's crown.  Id be able to make triple clamps, rearsets, wheels . . . you name it.

That's true, but some stuff is just ludicrous. ;)

so you're like that guy on tv who's punching the octopus on his shoulder while gold coins spray out of his pockets?

I know the feeling ;D

You should see some of the prices I see for jobs. Makes me glad I just do them and don't normally see the prices.

Yeah, but imagine how you'll feel when you're not buying oil for the stove all winter *and* freezing your ass off at the same time

I priced a product to use as a moisture barrier because it was outwardly permeable and liquid applied. I figured it would be something I could do to keep labor costs down.

A comparable sheet product would be ice and water shield, but it isn't outwardly permeable.

Ice and water shield is considered expensive.

I could buy the ice and water shield twice and pay for most of a DIMBY for the cost of the liquid.
