    This is not my area of expertise or business goal but I have a lot of respect for anyone who can get to this level in a garage. Love it when America is full of people with excuses and reasons why something can't be achieved and then you have this guy who is just getting busy doing it anyway. I started my business 24 years ago with a $300 loan from my mother so I can appreciate the dedication to the grind.

    It is so awesome to see the Versa Built technology gaining popularity. After 30 years in this industry there's not much that really impresses me but when I first ran across
    these guys I was truly amazed. And since you are a garage band and you're using their system, it must be pretty good. Best of luck to you. It's a hard way to make a living
    but there are unique satisfactions that come along with it. Well done so far, keep it up!!

    It's amazing what he's packed into a garage shop and still has room to move around. Trying to find info on his actual prototyping business. I have my 3d printers and manual machines in my chop, but no cnc yet for small runs.
    An article on him said the shop is: 20-foot-wide and 48-foot-deep garage/workshop with an 8-foot-high entry, skylights, and 220-volt electrical service.

      Haas aren't very expensive. People buy cars and trucks that cost more nowadays. The double pallet CNC definetly costs a lot more. I bought a Haas TL-1 for about 20k and the VF I got was about 65k. I prefer these machines because I do 1 to 3 piece prototypes. The rapid on these machines can be slowed down a lot. I like to make sure it doesn't crash since sometimes I'm only doing one run

      From Guy Driscoll: Yes I have 400 amps going to the property, 200 for the house and 200 for the garage and yes I am using a 20hp phase technologies phase perfect to power all four three phase machines (3 mills, 1 compressor)

    • @benthurber5363
      @benthurber5363 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Like... ever? Not going to have near the support as other brands and that model is discontinued. Horizontals have their advantages, but they suck to use as a general machine. Unless you have a need for a horizontal, a vertical with TSC/A makes a lot more sense and is far more flexible.
      Everything depends on what you want to make and how many you want to make.

    • @mikeb1520
      @mikeb1520 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@SuperYellowsubmarin every house has 240v electrical supply, our standard electrical outlets are 120v with 240v for things like clothes dryers, electric stoves, well pumps, air conditioning, etc., so adding a subpanel to the garage is pretty easy to run these machines at 240v. I have a 100 amp 240v subpanel system in my basement to power all my wood and metalworking equipment, but I’m just a hobby guy. For the number of machines he has, he might have had a second power line added for the garage with a separate meter that would allow more power than a subpanel from the main house panel, but sometimes that depends on if the power company wants to add that or not.

      In order to run multiple machines in your garage like he's doing... You usually have to have an additional service line installed to provide the additional power. This man is NOT running all those machines on a common household circuit. -- He has a dedicated high-amperage service line installed from the pole to his shop & is using phase converters to provide the machines with 3-phase power.
