Milla's coming along nicely
« on: July 08, 2009, 12:32:02 AM »
Hey folks, just wanted to give you a bit of an update.  This is how my mill (Milla) currently looks.  Yes, that is surrounded by plexiglass.  It's amazing how much more polished a machine looks with plexi around it.  The second picture shows the door and beginnings of the gantry as well as all the rails.  It's getting closer I swear.  Does it usually take everybody like 6 months to build these things, or is it just me?

Building something like this needs a lot of  R&D  take time and effort and material cost so much, no need to scrap some.

Anyway, thanks to keep posting, your machine look terrific, hope to see it running soon.

Nice work, Jeff

Certainly does look good Barry.

I wonder, does your wife know how much you are spending on this ?.   ;D

Hah, If I was married, there would be no way I could build this thing.  I can't wait to see this thing in action too.  One of these days, I'll have it all done!

 Thats a super lookin job your doing there.   As far as the time goes , I've spent 2 years doing a retrofit.
Other things seem to pop up , thats right , your not married. Consider yourself lucky   ;D , Keep up the good work,
And keep us all posted on your progress.
