All hobbies are expensive, but yes I own a machine shop. Aerospace, defense and spaceflight stuff.

Very cool. We have a little in common :D Attachment 20777 Not trying to thread jack, sorry.
What's your company? What are you doing with that thing, refurb?
This is the type of stuff i do, mostly the parts that nobody wants to touch. A lot of 5-axis shit out of nasty materials.

I have no idea what that is, but I want 2. Do you take Visa?
Don't think you'd really want to pay the bill on those. The material was inconel and the part is 12.00 x 12.00 dia. The material bill on those made my ass pucker hard.
It's funny most of the parts for this re-rig on the boat will be made out of exotics ( Inconel, A-286, Nitronic, Hastelloy, etc.) because that's what I have laying around the shop. When I'm done the boat will be worth more in scrap poundage than market value of the boat.:bangmyhead:
I'm glad I peeked in on the dungeon down here. Good stuff WESTERNAREO!:thumbsUp:
Yep, every so often you have to wonder out to the back 40 and check for strays and mend fences.
Good stuff in here :thumbup:
Nice looking parts, Great looking boat!
Thanks for sharing with us. :3:
