I'd like to extend Merry Christmas and Holiday Greeting to all in Cam-nation. Last year was good but this next will be better. As our nation grows and the networking continues, we will all learn more from each other which will only make us better. Congratulations to all the new owners and hope they all decide to jump in on the site to share stories and picures of their progress. The latest learning curve (Z axis) only shows what can be accomplished when we all work together. Thanks to J McGrew for staying on top of things. Maybe he will find time to sleep through the holiday season. One thing I would like to know is the where-abouts of all the owners. If I'm ever in someone's area, it would be great to stop in and see what's new. I live in the Charlotte, NC area and know of a few others, Joseph B, Jim M, Tisch (I'll need a passport to visit him!), Eric M and of course the whole homebased team in Lafayette, GA (great job guys!). Hope everyone has pleasant Holidays and keep on cutting!

Happy Nerw Year to all

Happy New Year to All

i have been a self employed woodworker all my working life (owned a bar or two in between) i swore for many years i would never own a cnc machine!! all i saw was massive iron that looked more like a tank in iraq than a tool with endless capability.

in my work i have reached most if not all goals i set for my self, i have been blessed to have been asked to build woodwork from bird houses to federal courthouses, had my work featured and admired ( or at least they put on a good act!!)

But this year

i was eating lunch and saw a carvewright comercial, bought one! realized real quick it was limited but it did what it was supposed to do!, met Bill Glenn and his fellows at CAMaster who built me one of the finest CNC tools i own, met Tony Mac in atlanta, who for some strange reason asked me to sit and share a meal with him and exposed me to software that would change everything and add a profitable component to my business as well !!

to all of you at Vectric, CAMaster and this forum i thank you, it truley has been one of life's best working experience's i could have ever asked for and the funny thing is

i swore i would never do it!!

Happy New Year and thanks again
