I've been totally consumed by starting my own business. I did a small home video for Modern machine shop magazine and submitted it. I don't know if it will make the cut. But I did give the ZR-1 some attention in it. I've been busier than a no legged man at an azz kicking contest. Things have moved very fast in a short period of time. This weekend I will be moving the Z out of the garage and into storage. I'm going to milk my garage for all it's worth. Next I will be looking for a building. I work my day job as a CNC programmer/shop manager. And when I come home I work in my garage until midnight making parts for my customers. I love it. Here's the video. This is blood sweat and tears man. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGBohmA4_q0:cheers:

Thank you Steve. Luck is a good thing to have on your side.
Luck is only a small part of it, Hard work guts and a good support network at home is the other and it appears you have what it takes to go all the way. :cheers:

I as well have been keeping up with your progress on FB. I know how tough it can be working for large manufacturing CNC companies most of my career as a ME/QE.
Best of luck and believe me you can do it. I constantly gets calls from companies who need help programing and proving gear cutting/gear checking programs.
It's a great opportunity for you and you will succeed with the right balance of equipment/minimum overhead.
