That said, now that I know more about what I'm doing (and have a solid business plan for it) my next machine will be all steel. The one thing that I didn't mention previously, partly because it isn't a problem for the work I do, is that a wooden table grows and shrinks with the climate. The way this is designed, it isn't a problem for X and Y axes, but it does manifest on Z. When I surface my table, it rarely takes off the same amount in the middle as it does on the ends - due to the movement of the wooden crossmembers supporting the spoilboard. As for the rest of your point, most of us don't have a instant revenue stream associated with a machine. In that case, the time spent building can also be used to develop a business plan. |

It was nice to meet you at the wooden boat festival Jeff.
You had a very nice booth set-up and display I am building a little rubens nymph for my son this weekend, he is very interested in learning how to sail so this is an inexpensive entry for him, he is also enjoying helping with the build as well I got a great deal on some epoxy and supplies at the show so I am staying busy now Jayson |

Thanks Jayson, I hope you enjoyed the show as much as we did. The weather and the company were both outstanding.
Bolger was one of the best designers ever, post photos of your progress! |
