Hello guys.
I know you all like photos so there goes my first commercial work i made for an small airline called RUTACA. They ask me to cut their logo for installing in some doors and office entries. The owner was very pleased with the finish of the cut.:) I just got the skeleton of the work.:eek: I will post the letters soon when they paint them and installed:o

Often the scrap pieces are the most interesting! :)

We have people buying the scrap panels, screwing them together with hinges and making room divider/screens from them.

Yes, I was thinking that some times, even the sacrifice board could be turn in an interesting and artistic panel . It is just a mater or imagination.

Its good to see that the money is rolling in Hugo. Not sure if signs are as expensive in Venezuela as they are here in Barbados but with some more jobs like this one and your baby should have paid for itself.

If you have those jobs for 40 hours per week, you could pay your MechMate build costs in under a month.....no? :)

Hello Jason. Nice to hear you. A lot of time has happened since your good advice about the bits I should start with.:) It is just like in that marvelous Island where you live. Publicity people pays ten times better then carpenters shop down here .
Gerald you are right, this machine can pay it self in very short time.:):) I am very interested in organize an efficient cutting and engraving service.
You gave me the opportunity to build in five month the type of machine that I spend five years before trying to build. Again my deep respect for you.

Hello Gerald.
After four years off silence:o I want to say hello again and thank you once more for the wonderful opportunity I had to build a MECHMATE under your advise and others great forum guys. I have been searching the forum once a wile, but there was so little to say that I just keep reading and learning. Compare to the new machines, I have the basic model but The Baby Beast can still handle tons of dust, electric failure etc, etc, and still gives me hours off great time. I have a friend, Guillermo that started by his own on a water jet project and knowing him and his capacities and the big help that everybody gets in this great forum he will end up with an efficient and good machine.
Well I feel like the lost son that came back, but I just want to say that the good friends even if we are not there the frienship and the respect keeps the same .

Hello Gerald and friends.
Today after four years making and breaking the Baby Beast has grown up and moved to its new workshop more comfortable and prepared for it.:):):):) After a long time reached its coming of age and it is capable of facing challenges and a variety of jobs and do well at all. Soon I will send photos of the new workshop. It is small but very comfortable. If you want to see what I've been doing lately review cdcortedigital.wordpress.com
I have not update it, but can have an idea of ​​what I'm doing.
It is not easy to do business today but fortunately my clients are growing and there are good prospects.
Regards
