Machines We Have Where I Work

[Bodaggit23]

I just thought I'd share some info on the machines we have where I work.

Our company has grown substantially in the past 5 years,
and the owner keeps dumping money into the building and equipment.

We just added 8,000 square feet onto our building and remodeled the office area,
plus added almost $1,000,000 in CNC mills this year alone.

I prefer to use the VTC 200B, but occasionally
I use a 510C.

These are not our actual machines, just pictures showing what they look like.

List of current machines, oldest to newest:

2000 VTC 200B ~ $130,000

Man that'd be cool to be able to use those machines to cut out some guitars! Wish I had access to a CNC.

You work with some expensive machinery!

[Bodaggit23]

Indeed, I feel very fortunate to be able to use these machines.

Even after 7 years of working with these bad boys, it still amazes me what they can do.

Any chance of cutting out some guitar bodies? ;D

That guy sure knows how to play a drill!

That must have been the most boring day at work.

I was kinda talking about cutting out some bodies for forum members here.

The Aluminum HM body is for sale, although I'm not quite done with polish on it.
