First off, I want to say hello to everyone. I’ve watched and read posts for quite awhile and I feel like you guys are the best source I’ve come across to answer a few questions I have.
I’m trying to make a decision on what direction I need to go. A little background on my situation is as follows. I’ve worked my way back from a heat stroke and lower back fusions. I’m not 100% back but I’m back enough to run a machine and work on starting a business. I want to make custom folders. So I need a machine that can meet the tolerances and repeatability to produce serveral hundred of each part needed. I know John Grimsmo started with Tormach and was a sponsor. So I don’t know if he had to throw a lot of parts away or hand finish them if they weren’t in tolerance. I just want to know if I go with Tormach will I get a machine that is capable of the job or will it not live up to the task. I’ve got a budget of $15,000 and I’m looking at the 770M or is there another direction that might work better.
Im hoping everyone here can share their opinions (negative and positive) and help me make an educated decision before I tie my money up in a machine that’s not capable of the job that I need. All comments are appreciated and I’ll try to respond back as soon as I can. Thanks and I appreciate everyone’s time in answering my questions.
