Since moving from Scottsdale last year I've been floundering. It has now been a full year and I decided I needed to start a new venture. This time around I'm going with a tried and true formula that has worked for me in the past and should work again but with a major twist. I had a cabinet shop years ago and did pretty well and built custom furniture, but it was labor intensive and took too much of my time. This time around I 'm investing in CNC machinery. This gives me plenty of options within the custom woodworking community and within the custom car community, as I will be able to mill Aluminum as well. Long term plan is turn it into a substantial job shop and secure manufacturing contracts. Short term is cabinetry and sign making.

The wonderful thing about CNC is the ability to replicate a successful project or piece. The engineering has been done and thats the biggest part of any physical product.

Trades are becoming a lost art, I wish you well. It sounds promising.

You will be "of value" long after 50% of the "workforce" no longer has funding. Thanks, on behalf of my children, for being an entrepreneur!
