This has to be the world's ugliest CNC machine
Added 2024-10-15 00:54:43 +0000 UTCAnd now it's mine...

I'm sure if you try harder, you can find an uglier one! The VM1 wasn't dirty enough? You know the way panels on this'n will be destroyed!! Note *name change aka wingdwolf56

2024-10-17 17:12:35 +0000 UTCAn interesting machine - looks like an outdoor portable toilet! Looking forward to seeing it in action.

2024-10-16 19:34:39 +0000 UTCWes I love bad (good) decisions!!! Keep on making them, they make great content and let me live vicariously through you!!!

2024-10-16 13:00:15 +0000 UTCWes mate I got'a ask. How are you going to unload this one? If that is 1kg heavier than the last your poor forklift is going to haemorrhage and with the backhoe gone you've lost your anchor ... no, no,no the tow ball on a Rav4 won't do! :-)

2024-10-16 00:56:43 +0000 UTCI have such a man-crush on you, Wes!

2024-10-16 00:34:47 +0000 UTCsounds like the Cuda story of "aging wheels"

2024-10-15 23:36:55 +0000 UTCI don't see a problem here.

2024-10-15 22:34:10 +0000 UTCDoes Mrs Wes ever say when are you going to stop buying junk, My wife does. i have 3 drill presses, 1 works 2 are projects. It looks like all the buttons are there on the VM10 so you got that going for you.

2024-10-15 20:26:17 +0000 UTCI'm going to show this to my wife. She gets annoyed when I bring home clapped out motorcycles. I now have evidence it could indeed be worse!

2024-10-15 14:52:56 +0000 UTCWe'll never know.

2024-10-15 14:52:05 +0000 UTCI thinking about a flame thrower, but steam cleaning might be a option.
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:51:41 +0000 UTCI know. I know...
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:51:16 +0000 UTCI mean that's pretty much every video!
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:51:02 +0000 UTCYeah. I hate painting though, so it might stay ugly.
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:50:40 +0000 UTCYeah they look pretty hashed.
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:50:04 +0000 UTCOn paper it's a better machine. We'll see how it look under the protective oil coating.
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:49:49 +0000 UTCYou are all correct!
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:49:16 +0000 UTCThat's gonna take a lot of zip ties!
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:48:44 +0000 UTCIt does run. That's all I know.
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:48:28 +0000 UTCI admit it!
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:48:05 +0000 UTCIt's potentially a replacement. On paper this is a better machine.
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 14:47:57 +0000 UTCOr the old "I bought something used which is little broken, so now I need to buy another 1 or 2 of the same in yet worse states of disrepair to source parts from".....the stripped out carcasses of subsequent parts machines laying around the shop/yard for eternity....My wife loves that one.
tripletaco
2024-10-15 12:41:44 +0000 UTCSo is this in addition to or a replacement / upgrade / side-grade for the VM1? And yes I know it's most likely an addition, but I have to give room for doubt :)
David Yates
2024-10-15 12:28:37 +0000 UTCWes, the first step to dealing with your addiction is to admit that you have one ;)
Chris Freemesser
2024-10-15 11:48:29 +0000 UTCTrue, it's not pretty! Will it work? Does it work? What does it look like from your perspective, obviously you bought it, so it's not that bad! Look forward to you revealing it to us, in all it's gory, sorry meant glory!
Ian McKay
2024-10-15 11:21:54 +0000 UTCI guess that is one, albeit a hard way, to get a 6-axis machine.
David Dogruel
2024-10-15 11:19:37 +0000 UTCAh, the old "I bought something used but now found a better version of the same thing for the same price/cheaper so now I have to buy it too...". My wife loves that one...
Patrick Filion
2024-10-15 11:19:10 +0000 UTCstop this addiction! It's not too late!
Vadim
2024-10-15 06:54:07 +0000 UTCOh my! It's a VM10 instead of the VM1 you already have!
Vladik Marinovski
2024-10-15 06:22:07 +0000 UTCOh no! More way covers to renovate! ;-)
Andrew Burton
2024-10-15 04:45:42 +0000 UTCSell the original and keep that one if its viable then? Hopefully it will clean up nice with the steam cleaner.
Darran
2024-10-15 04:39:22 +0000 UTCI hate it when that happens!
Fred Mott
2024-10-15 04:21:37 +0000 UTCMore tools, more Y and Z travel, windows operating system, USB, etc. On paper it's a lot better machine.
Watch Wes Work
2024-10-15 04:12:14 +0000 UTCSoon you'll have 10, it seems to happen that way with me at least.

2024-10-15 04:11:36 +0000 UTCI guess you could sand it and paint it so it's slightly less ugly. lol

2024-10-15 03:56:02 +0000 UTCOn the plus side, you can renovate it into a tiny house when Mrs. WWW kicks you out.....

David Bird
2024-10-15 02:37:16 +0000 UTCWes, I think you might have a condition. Unfortunately there is no cure and it highly contagious. Anyone seeing or hearing about your condition will be infested, and begin to suffer the same affliction. I know, I heard about an older engine lathe that a fellow railroaded who passed away had in his basement. SWMBO says no, but they're probably going to scrap it and I'll need one eventually (3-4 years).

Jon Nierenburg
2024-10-15 02:29:14 +0000 UTCmy suggestion is to steam clean it in place before attempting to unload it....
Jon Koferl
2024-10-15 02:15:35 +0000 UTCWhy have one clapped out machine when you can have two for the price of one good one! The same logic applies in my shed :/

Robert Gibbons
2024-10-15 01:13:05 +0000 UTCOn the plus side you can use that to make parts for the robot logging machine, like replace the winch and grab with a snow blower attachment, it already has a plow blade more or less. Put an outside window in your office and no need to go out in the cold to clear the snow. Make it autonomous and it can double as security, no one will try stealing anything with that yomping around the yard by itself!

2024-10-15 01:05:43 +0000 UTCThe obvious solution to an old and clapped machine is to get another, old, and clapped out machine

2024-10-15 01:05:24 +0000 UTCI’m going to guess that a parts run for the original Hurco turned into a whole other Hurco. Bravo
Jamie Pilkey
2024-10-15 01:04:51 +0000 UTCIt's a parts machine that might be better than the main machine.
