Karl, just curious, do you do CNC retrofits for money? As in, "I will
set up your machine with a new control for $XXXXXX.XX"? Or do you buy,
retrofit and sell machines?

I'm too slow an electrician and millwright to refit for money. I consult
by
the hour for control programming. I also buy used control equipment, test
it, and resell. And I get a commission on any software I sell. All of this
is just a sideline.


Yabbut, your real job is giving away (but not shipping) bushels of
apples, isn't it, Karl?


I haven't had a real job since 1991. Right now, we're giving away (but not
shipping) garden vegetables out of Julie's high tunnel. We just finished
strawberries, and then a break until apples.
