and you can build those hybrid distributors with those 2 pieces of equiptment! Actually just ths lathe, but with the millport you can make injector holes in an intake for MPFI !

I've been thinking of getting a sheetmetal brake to make ECM brackets, like in attached PDF...

At least you spent the money on things that are useful, and could be used to make money. Excellent purchases!

Well the mill is finally paid off along with 2/3 of the lathe, I got them wired up, and making chips, well the mill is. I had to buy a vise for the mill, and I still need to get a hold down set for it, and a toolpost and tools for the lathe, and collets, and .........soon though.

I don't know? Billet Aluminum seems to be a man thing, now if you can figure out how to CNC some girl stuff you may have a chance!
