Last run of 7 cases and they are all sold.

Epic project though.

There was one set still available when I read it, but they are looking for somebody to take over machining for future runs. Any takers.

it looks like they do it on a 4 axis. That's a firm "not it" from me. I could probably handle the programming, but the setup would be a bitch.

Not it? I thought surely Chris would say:"Honey, I need to buy a new milling machine. It's for the business..." You'd be the darling of the TZ world! Probably have the new tooling paid off, well, never.

Yeah, lol.

$40k in milling machine, $6k in 4th axis, $2k in tooling. Okay, these TZ cases are going for $1800 a piece and cost $600 to cast, I've sold almost three already. The recipe for a small fortune...
