A little back ground--Been in the machining trade since 1963, received my Journeyman Machinist card in 1969, been programming and setting up Haas TM-1 and TL-1 for the past 6 years up until I retired at the end of 2010.
Decided on a Tormach due to this forum and the lack of problems(there have been some but not like the other suppliers) and Tormach's excellent web site and all the info available. They are also very easy to deal with and answer emails in a timely manner.
I haven't had a chance to do a lot with the mill but so far what I have done has come out fine, even managed a job that I got paid for
Still exploring the ins and outs of Mach3 and what can be done with it, seems to have a lot of options.
So with this and all my other hobbies I stay out of my wife's hair and she won't make me go back to work, ha ha.
