Thanks for accepting me into the group.

I'm an engineering technician who does a lot of machining and 3d printing at work for prototyping, and now have a garage that's big enough to set up a workshop.

It will take a while to find the right section, but help on buying my first machines , both mill and lathe would be appreciated.

If anyone needs helping on building or working on 3d printers, I would be happy to lend a hand....I've built 8 so far and run one at work.

welcome

When prototyping machining do you prefer using manual or cnc gear? Do you end up making things over and over with small revisions? What do people pay? Is it for companies or individuals?
 
I am using manual gear at the time, and I actually enjoy it quite a bit.!! Would love for the company to get a small CNC center.

Right now, because I do all of the modelling, analysis, and interference detection on SOLIDWORKS, I am limited to making parts after I have gotten a design approved by the lead engineer/project manager.

Because I work within a company....it's just my regular paycheck at the time....no extra pay, but some nice benefits for having access to the machines and leftover materials on occasion.
