Dan, I have a older version of BobCad V19 and it works ok for some things but can't do all the functions on my control without tweaking things some. I have their newer 2007 (V22?) but I hate it and wasted my money on it. I'm just an old dog who's processor can't take in much more info
As far as hours, who's counting. I'll be going into my 9th year soon. I did keep some track of the milling of the bigger walking parts and it was around 100hrs.

Another flashback that took me about 3 weeks in the evenings to machine out the fairlead from a 3'' x 3'' block of steel turning it 90deg each side.

Always nice to see your work in progress shots. Wish I had the space for a full sized mill and lathe. Guess I will just have to plug along with my Sherlines! Still need to upgrade the CNC version. Looks like next year at the earliest now. Too many home improvements and vehicle repairs for this year.
