Hello can you please help me with a Hardinge cobra 65 lathe
Comment from : @abramfriesen9834

From owing a shop i would say some things to look at 1) Is there a machine repair guy in driving distance, paying to fly someone in sucks big time 2) can I get parts easy 3) can the controller do what you need easily & lastly I would stick with bigger name companies for all the above reasons plus when it comes time to sell a no name machine is going to be worth much less money I would expect anyone reasonably competent can pick up the controller easy enough

What do you think of Fadals? There seems to be a lot for sale and many home users Plus what phase convertors do you like

Great video Exactly the questions I have Watching all your content brbrBuilding small retirement shop Looking to add 2002 Haas mini mill What are your thoughts? I have limited power which makes this machine appealing for me Additionally the cost is low and will allow me to learn and start small This will add capability to my existing lathe and Bridgeport

Buy a 20-25 year old Okuma LB lathe or VR-40 Mill from an aluminum/steel machine shop No cast iron With proper care, will run another 20 years and hold 0005 all day long

I would absolutely love a small Haas lathe in my shop, but I hate their at machine programming The "conversational" is clumsy and takes too long for one off parts and I feel you shouldn't have to rely on CAM software for a simple 2-axis lathe

?? SL10, SL20 ?? It would be helpful (to a new user) if you said what BRANDS these are I suspect the afore mentioned are MDL #

I just bought a Fadal 4020 for my garage It’s not going to work because my foundation is 3-4 inches The machine is 10k pounds This is my first time starting a business from home garage I screwed up already haha Nice video man ! Subd
Comment from : @Poncho-dd2pl

yes, their control is superiorbut after that, I can't saybrI liked how they'd alarm out before destroying part self

What the HELL happened to that lathe in the background?
Comment from : @Dillybar777

Okuma SNK No one touches them <3 a lot of what FFG has on offer I Find HAAS are built cheaply with rigidity issues

At a job interview for CNC field service I was asked, "Mechanic or Electronics,? Don't say both My answer was "both" No one is safe when an inexperienced supervisor thinksbrthat it would not be both The authorized training schools that give the certification do both
Comment from : @wonderfulworld5134

I have a old lathe that's been a very good machine but the turret shaft broke I can't find one new or used It's a yam ck1 Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Comment from : @oldmachinist0024

I'm beyond freaked out to buy a used 3 axis mill Trying to finance a new one just isn't an option, though
Comment from : @nategoodwin3329

I live in Alabama My question is who are some reliable dealers that can be trusted I am looking for a used sl10 or a tl1
Comment from : @paulvarden6019

Your analysis of what machine to get is right on I bought a used (2003) mini-mill a few years ago to put in my garage I'm very happy with it - it is the perfect size and it runs on 240V single phase - which is something you left out Fortunately, I used to have a mini-mill at work so I knew the control very well, but someone who was new to these machines would only need a day of training from Haas or the local HFO Your videos are great - I can't say enough about them

Fantastic, found me a new channel to binge watch lol Love to know your thoughts on DIY or buy and whats a good price to pay for second hand? Cheers J
Comment from : @joshuadelisle

Would be nice to get your input on what year range is a good starting point for say a company that is upgrading from "Tormach 1100M" starter machine to a VF2 and a SL 10 or 20 for a shop that needs both mill and lathe AND what year range to stay away from, what year range is just to old?
Comment from : @billb295

Have you had any experience with customers who have imported no-name CNCs? I have priced them out just for the heck of it and was shocked to see them about a 1/3 of cost of a similar speced Haas VF
Comment from : @22lambo

I made a lot of money with my Haas Super Mini Mill 2, it was pretty affordable I outgrew it after 4 years and bought a SMEC MCV 4300 Haas make a great machine, especially if it's your first day out of prison Anyone can run a Haas
Comment from : @MachinistDom

I hope you're channel grows so you can test desktop machines, REAL tests the haas VS okuma VS doosan is irrelevant "what can you expect for under 10K"
Comment from : @axisfiveraxisfiver5844

Haas is not the best but it has the best support and the control is very friendly and the repair is not expensive as other brands 👍👍👍👍
Comment from : @amtechnology64

Not a Haas that’s for sure
Comment from : @chrisyboy666

Ive had a lot success with Taiwanese machines we own a small feeler chucker lathe we picked up for $4k (cad) with some minor issues, mainly the hydraulic switches for the chuck and turret But parts were easy to get and replace, it's super accurate and fast, 8 tool turret and coolant The tormachs we were looking at were far more expensive with no coolant or tool changer when we were looking at them Our yang smv-600 has been an absolute champion, got it for $8k (cad) 20 tool changer, 8k rpm spindle and flood coolant, hasn't given me any troubles in the 2 years of ownership
