[New Castle] Cnc shop services
I work at a small(ish) CNC shop in New Castle.. Im the lead programmer/operator/do-all dude in the shop.
I am new to firearms, but we run a very capable shop (our CNC lathes are able to hit +- .0001 without a problem.)
If there is anyone needing some machining done, I would be interested in taking a look at the job and giving you a quote.

Thats ok, we can quote a brain fart.. its gonna cost you tho.
One warning: Our buisness is really cooking at the moment, so lead time may be severe. It depends on the job, if its a lathe job, all our lathes are open. A CNC milling job may be a 1-6 weeks!
Our CNC lathes can hold worpieces upto 10 inches in diameter. Our CNC mills can hold a 20x38x23 workpiece.

Now that's a good thing.
Machines cost a lot, they're not cheap. Larger companies that I worked for can afford big stuff like that.
That you guys are working in a small shop and make a go of it is commendable. It's not easy.
Keep up the good work!!

Fun is the key.
Why live a miserable life?
My analogy is this:
If you love skiing, you can either become a lawyer, so you can afford to go skiing on the weekends..
Or be a ski instructor, struggle a little bit, but do what you love evry damn day.
The best part is when I remember I get paid for what I do.
