Yeah we bought 4 of those in 2008 and another one like a month ago. We've got some older machines too, like a few from 1993 and a couple from 2000. There's 21 CNCs plus all the supporting equipment, saws, martial rack, chip bins, de-burr dept., Quality Assurance dept., and offices in only a 10,000 square foot shop. Add to that the fact that we still maintain forklift access from front to back, its f#cking packed. Seems like all those stimulus efforts have kept the machining industry alive and well. All of the shops in our circle of associates are over loaded with work and begging for qualified employees. Too bad I wasn't making badges in 2008.
