Really great to get such a positive update on your workshop's continued success and growth. Seeing how you use the robot as part of your production workflow would be very interesting. To also see your home basement workshop again would be a real treat. An update on the home heating system you worked on when you moved in would also be appreciated.. Hopefully you get some quality time with your family and get to still take your boat out during the summer months. Regards from England, Andrew

Hienoa ja kiitos sunppaa että teit pitkästä aikaa uuden KZitem-videon! Tuo on kyllä mahtavan hienoa että pikku kellaripajasta nousi tuon kokoinen koneistamo! Arvostan suuresti sitä miten isoa työtä tuo kaikki on vaatinut...

It is so great to see that you are doing well and that your business succeeding, I started watching like 8 years ago now and I have always learned a lot from seeing the way you do things (when I started watching I was 14 years old and just learning how to use a milling machine) Thanks for bringing us along with you!

I also own and operate a shop, but in California. For me the most expensive things are labor and shop floor space. Around here, it is very unusual to have more employees than machines and the ratio is usually over 2:1. Also your shop is much larger and more spread out than mine. Mine looks like it could be in Tokyo with how close the machines are to each other. Employee's wages are so high that it doesn't make sense to have anything but the best and fastest machines since the equipment is cheap compared to the employee. Also it is worth it for me to buy compact machines and pay extra for machines that give the same travel in a smaller footprint. Thanks for the update. Clearly you have optimized for the economic conditions you find yourself in.

It's great to see you back again 👍👍 It was only a few weeks ago I left a comment asking for another video. Just to see how you're going. Still Subscribed after so many years following along. Yes, you definitely have a few more machines since we last saw you. The Mazak / Mazatrol is what I consider the best machine with the best controller. Siemens is a very close second. I could have done with the Siemens on my latest DN Solutions / Doosan Lathe ?? The only reason I went with the Fanuc was mostly waiting time which is around 12 Months ???? And to add to this pain an additional $10K. IF I wanted the Siemens option. 10k I could sort of live with ?? But waiting 12 months for the machine ???? IF you feel like sharing something in a video that might be interesting to watch. Just post it. Don't be too concerned about what you should post. Most of us are just interested see what's happening with you at the moment. Your machine in your basement, might be a good video to start with.

I highly recommend you the DMU eVo Series for your 5-axis thoughts. Speed and accuracy is outstanding, also ergonomics, layout etc. are very good. Got 2 of those from different generations running all day 2 shifts. If you have any questions or similar, I would be glad to help you

My father works with a 60p hi-dyn (one of the first in the US) on a casual basis. It is a very good machine but the way the machine is placed where he works he has to climb over the chip conveyor to load it!

Glad to see a new video, iv'e been watching for a while and have loved all the videos. my last shop was all mainly haas mills, i know everybody wants to say haas is trash or whatever but for a prototype shop or a job shop they are really good. they can handle hard stuff and you just have to look at them like a bridgeport or a not as ridgid machine. Gotta go 'oldschool' sometimes and not try to beat the shit out of them and they'll make good parts. now i just work with japanese machines and people at the shop talk bad about haas but you cant blame the machine. You just have to learn it and work around its downfalls. Ive milled some hard and big ass shit on the haas's its all about feeds and speeds. that vf6ss couldbe a beast my man 🤟, KEEP UP THE CONTENT BRUTHER

Some Makino machines, like their heavy-duty verticals, are made in Singapore. You could see about getting the spindle motor rebuilt.

Hey sunppaa I am a huge fan. PLEASE CONTINUE MAKING VIDEOS. Also, do you see any Swiss type work or getting any bar feeders in your future. There is something awesome about loading a bar feeder with 12ft bars and letting her rip.

I have to ask: did you eventually make any money from the slugs left over by the 1000+ parts you did with the trepanning on the Takisawa? I have been wondering if it pays especially when the material is not super alloys or titanium etc. Also it occurred to me that many of the parts you would get from 50 or so mm round bar stock would be preferred to be machined directly from full lenghts. Nevertheless, the trepanning made for a very efficient process as there is a lot less machining although doing it on a CNC can be not only sketchy but impossible because the tool won't fit especially when the workpiece is larger in length. It's a very interesting operation but I guess there is a reason that no tool supplier that I know of carries a line of trepanning tools.

Any idea for how to align the carts for the robot? Unless it has a vision system for alignment there will have to be a system for aligning them with sufficient accuracy.
