New toy.

We have added a new machine to the workshop. A laser marking machine/engraver.

A man can never have too many toy's, 

Very impressive.

Does it do other chamberings?? 🤣

[JR FIREARMS]

It can cater for all popular calibres 🤣

A couple more new toys added to the workshop. The main one being a Faro CMM arm. This allows precise measuring of parts for QC or reverse engineering. Such as copying the outline of this Sako 85. We then convert the information in to a CAD model for inletting/machining. This is handy for opening up inlets for bedding etc.

Nice, we used Faro arms at "a well known luxury car manufacturer" in Cheshire to digitise clay renderings amongst other things.  It's a technology that's becoming more accessible now.

Everything is accessible for a price 🤣😅

I more use to using gantry CMM’s, so this is a little weird to use. But to have similar accuracy of a ganty CMM but with the flexibility of the arms is pretty cool.

Finally got around to setting up and trying the true bore alignment system on the Haas CNC lathe. First job was a couple Remington 700’s that needed truing.

I do love a good machine tool!

Me too, it’s a bit of an addiction 🤣

Very therapeutic turning big lumps of metal into smaller pieces  . Nice gear there mate . Beautiful looking threads . Cheers

Thank you. Machining is fun until it goes wrong 🤣.

Engineering porn at its best 😍

Nice one!
