Scary Good.

With a Twin spindle lathe and a Five Axis Machine centre there is nothing you couldn't make.

Try and do that on a Cincinnati or Bridgeport.

When I was an apprentice toolmaker we got the first CNC lathe in Hawkes Bay ...... Had to write the code on a ticker tape then tread this into the lathe.

And I though that was out of this world.
