Finding someone who can run a machine tool without half a dozen computers on it is part of the problem. I've been buying good condition manual machinery for pennies on the dollar for about 20 years. All I need to buy now is enough time to use them! Maybe my son and my grandson will be interested enough to carry on the "family tradition"- - - - - -hope so!
