We made all the other machines here, for making wire wheels, end

Time to lease a waterjet for that shop...

With the hinky economy I wonder if any of the waterjet suppliers is
willing to provide a machine in your shop on a charge per hour of cut
time basis. Other industries are doing similar "capacity on demand"
where they give you a machine and charge you for use, or you pay for a
base use amount and get charged extra over that amount.


At least Cleveland still has wonderful shops that can do anything and
most are no more than 10 minutes away...and they ARE hungry.



Did you hear that Michigan may sign a 'Right to work' law, within a

Ohio may follow sooner than most think. About time!



Looks like it was passed:
