Called in at (spondon440) Andy's place the other day and was amazed at his factory, he must have 50+ machines from grinders to CNC's that can take a lump of metal and turn it into a work of art. It's amazing how it all works (not being a spanner man) although i have worked with CNC woodworking machines. It's an engineers heaven, to see them working to perfection. Great place Andy keep up the good work.

He's getting good too. He is conversational in G-Code already.
