LOL! No, Graham, your not.
Perhaps my point was a bit off color. The point I was making with
that comment is that you can take the time to make something look
good, even if it ISN'T for profit. I relate this to pride in
workmanship.
The whole point of doing this stuff (making machines and devling
deeper into it all) is for me to have some fun. Making the machine
look good was fun. Adding a bit of flair and style to it was fun.
Painting it with a two tone paint job was fun. Deisigning the
graphics overlay for the operator panel was fun. Fixing the mistake
on the power control panel by using a piece of Bloodwood was fun
(lemons out of lemonade). Adding textured backgrounds to the control
software was fun. None of it needed to be done for a home made
machine, but it was fun and it ended up looking better.
My bigger machine isn't nearly as "Dressed" or "finished" looking, yet
it works great and I have fun with that one too. So, I do go both
ways too, I just try to make things look good when I can ;-)
