been a machinist for 50 years - bought a 60w blue and white from Automation Technology a 1 1/2 year ago
got some parts done to pay it off and now mostly do fun stuff
watching Russ's youtubes to pick up more tips and found this forum - thanks

Welcome Robert.
There is some useful info here but sounds like you are fairly proficient and certainly have a good background to deal with machinery.
Maybe we can learn from you - please feel free to chime in where you can.
