Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Hardinge Conversions

Here in the UK you can buy a 1000kg of scrap steel for £5 if you're buying
in bulk! That 'scrap' squashed into a piece of square tubing costs me £36
for a few kilos. There's been a major decline in people interested in metal
working here but how do you build all those coffee bars without _coooool_
stainless signs? : )

Providing coffee for all,
John
