Our new Haas Super VF 4 mill is in and running so now we have three in house machines to make parts. Let me tell you this thing is amazing and its so fast. We hope to pick up on all production now with three machines running two shifts. I will post up some more pics soon

Chris,

Looks absolutely killer. CNC machines are just awesome. I had the opportunity to run a Haas VF-2 while getting my engineering degree. Sometimes I miss the hum of it cutting through some T6, but I don't miss the smell of coolant. One of my good friends also ran our SL-20, and she is one bad ass chick. Ah, maybe one day I get that opportunity again. It's great being able to design parts then go make them.

Anyways, your shop looks killer, good job. Hopefully I'll eventually put some of your parts on my 73 Camaro.

Chris

Sweet Machine! I ran a Fadal for a while at 10,000 RPM in town here just out of High School. I loved the coolant smell for some strange reason.

Anyway, I saw you guys at the Roadster Show in Pamona, Ca. a month ago. After visiting your booth I am now the proud owner of a Fesler key chain, sticker and catalog. Thanks you.

I think it is awesome what you guys are doing for the art of car building!

I really like the haas mills. We use mazak machine centers at work but at school we have the haas. very cool.

just out of curiosity what do you do for your programming? do you use mastercam or something else?

The investment we are making in these machines shows you guys that we are serious and here to stay. We are not playing around we are a full production outfit and do almost everything ourselves. We just send our polishing and Anodizing out.
