They actually do CNC machines and other large mills and lathes. Some of the stuff is 25 feet long and over 10 feet tall. Crazy big stuff.

Learning new stuff is always fun, though. It's one of my favorite parts of the design business. I have learned tons of info about random stuff like green power, forklifts, ATVs, industrial machinery, street sweepers, amongst other things.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh..... CNC! Mills! Lathes! Oh I love that stuff! As a watchmaker I'm constantly interacting with machinists/machine shops, and I'm always fascinated by the newest machinery. I use a jewelers lathe for work (10", not exactly something your company is likely to carry). The machinists I work with make the watch cases and some of the 316L custom steel parts that I use with my watches. Uhhhhhhhh, can you you get me any discounts?

j/k about the discounts. Anyways it is very interesting stuff to me.

Sure, I'll knock at least $1k off a $150k CNC machine. How's that? :D

To whoever asked: They're called Republic Lagun and they have two locations in SoCal and that's all.
