    Just A Heads Up

    Major drama within the family may mean that I'll have to sell my beloved Tormach 770 with accessories unless things take a turn for the better.

    My very small shop area might have to be converted back into a living space. As a result, I'll have to sell off my machining toys but, I'm holding out until May of next year and I'm hoping for the best.

    Just in case any of you knows someone in the Phoenix metro area who's interested in purchasing a two year old 770 with most of the Tormach add-ons and accessories except for the coolant pump/tank, enclosure, key board and monitor; this will give them a heads up on a well maintained machine. It would include these accessories, they're just not the Tormach brand

    I'll hold off on any further details until May. With any luck this will turn out to be a non-event.

    Thanks for your time.

    Thanks for the kind word Kevin.

    Things are looking up but we're not quite over the hump just yet. It's just one of those things where family comes before toys.

    I hope all works out with your family situation! If it comes May and you're still needing the living space, please contact me. I'm in San Diego, but this seems to be the kind of setup my business can use to get a quick start in automated machining. I do all of our prototypes by silicon mold -> resin castings, 3D printer, or I'll whittle it out by hand on our manual lathe and vertical mill...

    Thanks and good luck -- actually hoping I don't get the call because things work out for you to keep your toys.
