Myc,
My first goal was to get an article published in a magazine like
the ones I used to read. After I did that I designed and came out with
a simpe a monkey organ planset. The mags did not want it or others I
did because they were too long. I also had a problem with what they
paid. After I finished the monkey organ I got a call to do a
bridgeport Boss repair. It was then I saw a need for a simple machine
people could learn with. The first one was all PVC. At one point I was
offered aluminum scrap. In the scrap was the aluminum window channel.
This is when the lighbulb went on! I turned the scrap into a machine.
Using the money I made and my saving I developed new machines. In 2006
I put out 15K of my own money while making 7.5K So it is very easy to
see I am doing this only for the adventure. This is why I don't take
any flack from people who have done nothing for this hobby except
criticize me. They had 6 years!
