If I had the $$$, of course I'd be Nuckin' Futz. I'd buy all that fancy stuff and then figure out how to use it.

For now though, I just make friends who have the tools and skills I don't have.

+1 for nuts

soflmuddin · #**125** 10-05-2010, 11:30 PM

I love to build but I drink to damn much to use fancy equipment. A set of torches, grinder, sawzall, welder, and a cooler full and I'm good to go.

well i'm kind of between Nuts and Nucking Futs....

I'm a protoype designer/Fabricator and have access to 2 CNC mills, CNC lathe, CNC roller.... as well as the rest of the manual stuff.... we are in the process of purchasing a CNC tube bender as well....

but the cherry is that I can cast almost anything that I would like to as we have a mini foundry here as well....

im about done with empty space, the neighborhood i live in doesnt allow for sheds/shops because its ugly

soon as i move out i have my eyes on a two post, new band saw, bigger tubing bender, and hopefully a plasma table

D.G.F · #**139** 12-11-2011, 11:47 AM

i would be nuts going on nucking nuts

DieselS10 · #**140** 12-13-2011, 12:48 AM

According to the poll I would be nuts, but only because of the equipment listed. I figure out a way to build everything that I want with what I have, there is almost always a way.
