[TheForge] New Toy

[robert hensarling]

Me and a friend looked into that very carefully several years ago.  Initial 
setup is high, but it's an all in one business.  We checked all around the 
area trying to find products we could make, including our own line of 
specialties.  Maybe we just weren't smart enough, but we never were about to 
make it pay for itself on paper.   In realife it may have been quite 
different.  Along came the water jet systems, and seems that more people 
liked it than the Plasmacam, at least in Southern Texas.  Now I'm shopping 
for a place to send my work to have it waterjetted.  This is mostly several 
sizes of leaves, and other odds and ends.  To this day though I still think 
I could have done something with the plasmacam, it's just a lot of money to 
tie up into one thing.  That, and the fact we're not in a "industrial" type 
of area here, just ranching and farming primarily.
