I contacted Mike Mueller about a 4.0 emblem for the back of my car. I also asked how much for a set for Betty's 1.8.

Here is what I got in the mail...

These are absolutely beautiful. It is a shame that I have to paint them black.

Mike... I am in awe..

And we owe you more money.

Mike's the man....

He did my 914-GT badge a while back.
I opted to anodize it and couldn't be happier.

We've all helped each other the years! My favorite part of 914world is how we all "belong."

I finally installed mine. Looks awesome. Tiny bit of 3M emblem glue is all you need.

You can argue with Betty over that.

Mike, can they be made of stainless steel? That would polish up nicely.

Mueller did a custom emblem for a 911 friend of mine.
Great workmanship.
Big thanks Mike

Tormach 1100 with tool changer. Geared towards the hobbyist or very light industrial use. There are quite a few guys making some good money and very nice parts with theirs.

I have noticed a trend for the small business guys to use these as stepping stones, once they are making money or pay off the machine they will step up to a Brother or Haas. I am space and power limited so this one is staying. I would like to convert to servo (they are coming out with a factory servo equipped machine fairly soon) but for now the steppers are fine for my use.

Luckily the 914 fits into the garage with the mill, I have about 1 foot of clearance, will take picture later on.

And I get a hard time for the tools I have...!

(Envious, btw. Would love that capability.)
