Well, my little TAIG based machine is now doing production work hollowing
out bricks and assemblies of various different sizes. I did a batch of 120
bricks the other night. It would have taken me a week on my manually
operated mill.

Brick hollowing doesn't have quite the glamour of making new and unusual
parts, but it is the main reason I bought the machine.

(...) By the way, I spoke to a Roland salesman. Although their machines have the nice digitizing features, they don't have anything in the price/performance range that Taig addresses. (24 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.technic)
