well i may have found my machines.......that is if the travel restrictions ever end! finger crossed

may have to sell some other kit to fund them but if i can scrape together the cash then i will soonish be the proud owner of both the CNC lathe and mill that i was after. then the real fun can begin. as expected they have not been run in a few years but are functional so the first job will be strip clean and generally service them and upgrade the electronics.

time will tell.
