Re: what are people doing?
My interests changed since couple of months, but electronics(repair/design some coding for fun) and DJ. Really busy on summer, almost 24/7. That's a lot of decibels and music
However, DJing in 2011 also mean I can design my own gear... an endless story ...
Oh yeah, I forgot... spend 2-3 minutes/week to help/solve forum user problems

Re: what are people doing?
I spend all day running a machine shop and also being an operator. Now I love my job, but it can get REALLY boring at times. So most of the time I spend thinking about how to make something work. Currently I am considering replacing the controls on some of my older machines to use EMC2 instead of the dedicated controllers they came with. Electronics is what I started out intending to do for a career but things changed. Now it is my hobby along with R/C flying.
BTW, big plug for this forum and its people - I have been an active member for just about a year now, about 6 months longer then any other forum. And still enjoy popping in all day.
THANKS EVERYBODY!!!
and THANKS LESTER!!!!!
@Hank - Too funny, at least you got 33 seconds from him. When I'm lucky, I can get my wife to turn her head and glance.

Re: what are people doing?
what kind of machines do you have, i purchased a Torchmate 2X4 about a year ago, and have a couple of seats of BobCAD CAM V24.

Re: what are people doing?
I don't have any CAM software, I did at 1 time but never used it much. For the most part my work is not too complex and usually easier to just code by hand. As for the machines, I have 4 VMC's in use and 1 lathe. I have a few more old non-working machines that I just can't bring myself to get rid of. I have always wanted a CNC torch/plasma/Laser, but don't have any need for 1 and doubt I would be able to justify the expense.
I buy all my machines used, I once heard a business model where a guy had 5 or 6 of the same machines. All were outdated but ran just fine. He could run any of his jobs on any of them since they were identical. They were clearly not the fastest things out there, but for what he spent on them, he could have multiple machines to run jobs on and get done just as fast with WAY less overhead. I thought this was a great idea and have been working towards that goal.

Esp. if Gifs and flash makes you want to headbang.
