    Love it.

    I was just reading about the Pama Speedram 4000 (Floor type boring/milling machine) in the trade press.

    x-travel of 10,000mm and y travels of 6500mm. 25t capacity

    You could mill up a Golf! Hell you could probably knock out a Crafter!

    THe M150 Millturn is pretty cool too - 6 NC axes, bed length of 8m with a working diameter of 1.5m.

    Think I missed my calling.

    For the record, I also like pick and place robots and NC waterjet cutters.

    EDM machines are way cool and any pneumatic stuff by Festo is bordering on voodoo.

    Of course I can't use any of it, but I can't fly fighter jets either and they're cool too.

    Yeah i've played around with most of that stuff. Not mills of that size though. Really cool stuff.
