I hear you, I had a cnc saw down on Monday.
Glad to help, looking forward to your primer photos

Just ridiculous what repair costs on CNCs. The transmission will run me 14,555.00 and the spindle rebuild was 8,800.00.

Those home made $500 units seem a bit more attractive now?

Not really, not for what I do with a CNC. You would have to see one of these running a 2 1/2" indexable drill at 14" a minute in Stainless to understand. The CNC you are talking about would not be accurate enough either.

yeah, you are way to big. But it sure would be nice if you could DIY something that would work...

Dang sure would!

Looking good, Eric!

Once you got the primer, open the can and stir it. Mine (Interlux) is so thick, even after I thin it as recommended that covered all marks of 60gr sanding in the first coat. It can save a good time and don´t compromise the results.

Regards,

Carlos.

Thank you Carlos! I plan to take my primer to Lowes and ask them to mix my primer up too.

Does the shipment include primer? I'm sure looking forward to seeing her primed.

No, I've had the primer a while. It was silica,graphite and some 3/8 Nap rollers and frames.
I hope to need all of this by the end of the month!!!
The rollers look to be top notch!! I still plan to run them over some duct tape though.

Hate to hear about the CNC break down and its costs. That would put a serious damper on the boat building budget
On the up side you have a whole bunch of folks eagerly looking forward to primer pictures.
