I think it depends on what you mean by "retrofitting". Converting a manual machine probably does't make much sense in many cases. However, I am converting a small milling machine because that is the size I want, and there are no CNC machines of that size and quality out there. > And that it's time and money well spent to just buy a good used > machine and move on with making money with it. A lot of retrofits have no ambition to ever make money, the aim is to gain the capability without spending much money. I have absolutely no interest in making parts for money. In fact i have turned down offers. I want my machines to make things for my own entertainment. -- atp The idea that there is no such thing as objective truth is, quite simply, wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
