Hey Metal-heads

My brother in law has a company in Utah that makes parts for steel foundaries (switches, brakes, etc)...I never knew *exactly* what he did but on my last trip out west I visited his shop.
I was like a kid in a candy store and was pretty blown away at the tools he had. 8 CNC mills, 4 CNC Lathes, a bunch of manual mills & lathes, large presses/vices, every tool you can imagine, a huge supply of alu, steel, copper and brass rod and bar stock...pretty much nirvana for a light builder! He said he didn't know I was that much into metal working...haha!
The problem is that he lives 2000 miles away and if I was closer I could have free reign on all this stuff. :madman: One of his guys cut my 7up light. Here are some pics of his shop, you may want a bib for the drool!
