I do agree that CNC is in fact the way to go. But it took a little time to get my CNC lathe and mill, both of which came from a university that up graded. I am up in Maine and it is expensive to move them up here. Keep your ear to the ground and deals will come. If you get the work and dont have the equipment to run it on, TRY to find another shop in your area that has eqipment to run it on. It is a risky way to do it, but it may get you started. Take your time no one is doing too much in today economy... Seems like they are all waiting to see what tomarrow will bring??? A fool and his money are quickly parted.
