Hehehe, I had to try! You think you have a real CNC? Here are REAL Mini mills.

YEAH, THOSE ARE PRETTY NICE...BUT I DIDNT HAVE 30 OR 40 GRAND AT THE TIME TO DUMP INTO A MILL. IT STARTED AS A HOBBY, BUT NOW HAS TURNED INTO A FULL-BLOWN ADDICTION!.........I USED TO ONLY HAVE THE 1 MILL, BUT NEEDED TO MAKE MONEY ON MY OTHER PROJECTS AND MILL SOME BLOCKS AT THE SAME TIME(I THOUGHT), SO THAT ULTIMATELY LEAD ME TO BUYING AND CONVERTING ANOTHER MILL.

At one time I thought about making blocks to sell, but there is no way I would make any more money than I am at this job. And the liability is just to great. I would rather get people motivated to build their own blocks. I am working on a few tutorials on how to make a very good block from common hand tools. No mills needed!

YEAH, I HEARD. CANT WAIT TO SEE HOW THEY COME OUT.

Another notion I had is making DIY Kits. With the copper stock and directions on what to do!

PROBABLY A VERY PROFITABLE IDEA

I do not want a sample sent to review, I want an actual retail version! It is to easy for a manufacturer to send you a "sweet" one to review. What is worst is a prototype style review. I pull my hair out when I see reviews based on pre-production stuff. Does no one any good.

YEAH, ITS VERY MISLEADING.
NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT MOST REVIEWERS DONT HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE NOR SPECIALIZED EQUIPEMENT TO DO A PROPER TESTING.

But anyway wish you all the luck on selling your stuff. Let me know when you plan to release some pics!

THANKS AND ILL BE GLAD TO!
