And I completely agree with you but while I would love and I mean absolutely love to have a Bridgeport, which I could’ve had for free bc the company I work for scrapped one bc they didn’t know what they had, I have no room for one. Hints why I bout a combo. But I respectfully disagree. Very respectfully I’ll say again. The reason I say this is yes, it is way undersized and underpowered for that matter to be making a piece this big if I was running production but being a one off, i don’t think it is. I’ve got two sides that are 4-3/4 x almost 8” faced and perfectly smooth and perfectly parallel with one another, so if I can do that there shouldn’t be any reason I can’t finish it as long as I can set it up square. But Like I said I know I could not make 20 of them, or maybe i could but I would be in my walker by the time I was finished.
I get it though ,bc it is slow, but when it’s all you have got to work with you make due with what you have ,like what I did last night and that was.....
There is no place close enough that sells the amounts of epoxy resin that I need ,but I had some 4:1 laminating epoxy I bought for a sealing green hid bulbs in borosilicate bottle to use for fishing lights and to Incase led chips for fishing,but not enough to completely wet out my granite epoxy.
So I went to Lowe’s and hobby lobby and bought small 4 and 8 ounce kits,1:1 mix ratios. Even though so many people told me it wouldn’t cure, I knew it would , bc to me when I thought about it,it was common sense ,that if it’s 100 percent mixed it would cure and cure just fine. I combined the 4:1 and 1:1 epoxies then added the hardener poured it and low and behold it started heating up , and was hard as a rock this morning. I’m very good at working around things and figuring out of to build things with only what I have but I don’t know it all and is why I ask question and I appreciate everyone’s comments.
