BeardedGunsmith that's the joy of building your own from scratch. You can build whatever you want. Plus I like making as much as I can. Except for barrel an lock. Maybe someday but at 73 I don't see it happening real fast....ha ha

Yeah I won't comment anymore on CNC because it tends to piss people off.
I guess you're not driving a vehicle made in the last 50 years then? I would think you're a man of principle

Wood working and metal work was required in 1931.

Fifty years ago their were dam few CNC machines. It was more tool an die plus lathe ,drilling ,boring machines. I know I was working with them.
We appreciate the new technology. But a lot of us still like to make our own stuff by hand.
It's called a challenge and personal satisfaction doing stuff with our hands.

Okay then, let’s go to 40 years ago or even 30 years ago. Pretty certain for big auto production this was in place by then.
Still waiting to hear what vehicle the cnc hater drives.

Do you make your own saw blades,chisels, carving tools? I don't using CNC tooling takes a back seat to hand made anything.

I acknowledge that cnc has a place in society amd that it's commonly used in day to day life. I just personally think it takes less skill than what I do and don't see how anyone can get gratification from button pushing, but then again as you stated, you only care about profits so I reckon it doesn't matter to you. Just my opinion.

I ran a lot of parts on cnc equipment in the past. I don’t miss it at all. It is designed to make the same part over and over again making things interchangeable with little to no hand fitting.
Read the question in post #1and the answer in post #3. We're now arguing just for the sake of arguing.
Dang. Usually i dont say to much. That was very rude.
You think CNC programs and processes magically appear? Let me tell you from experience that developing these processes is FAR more difficult than building any equivalent gun by hand.
Like it or not it’s part of our everyday society and by being a consumer you are supporting it.

Jim just keep doing what your,e doing. I shall open with great joy someday one of your Delivered Crates.
In my 81 years, I have had enough of doing it the traditional (hard) way, give me CNC and anything else that makes my job easier.
That is certainly true. I have done a good amount of 3d computer modeling. It takes an enormous amount of time and skill to come up each design.
Well, you do what you do. Go ahead and look down your nose at others. That’s nice.
How ignorant. You don’t like something, so you have to put it down.
