Realy nice, how long did it take to get to the present capability ?
Best Regards Tom.
I bought it exactly a year ago. I only started working on it in the beginning of June. I have a full time job and a side hustle and kids, so I can only get to the mill occasionally.

did you learn a lot in the last year? did you have a lot of fun? did you track your total cost?
yes
yes
Yes, I have a spreadsheet on my Bridgeport page. It does not track costs of things like screws, terminals etc, but it does track all major components.
...
looks like about $2K
Now for the important question. How soon do you start your lathe?
Karl
More like 2,600 total, not counting trinkets (which are substantial).
Not quite yet. *IF* I had room, I would try to find some old CNC lathe with a busted control, and retrofit for EMC.
iI am impressed at what you have accomplished; enjoy the CNC Bridgeport in good health.
