I understand the "feel" aspect of getting the hang of making stuff. I work with my hands on a daily basis (yeah baby, do I make you randy?!) and am pretty good at visualizing stuff and getting it made with my crude tools. I am also a good steel welder, no experience with other metals though, no need yet.

So the combo machine looks good, although a small cnc would be nice, like the one Jeff linked to in covington (a few miles from me). Wish I had the funds (well I do but they are earmarked for firearms and ammo) to buy both. I just need to jump in and buy something, find its shortcomings and then upgrade!

This is all great info, keep it coming! I bought a few books on running machine tools and have some ideas about how it is done.
