Good morning all. It's been years since I've been around because of the job I have, but I have accepted a new role starting in July. This job consists of starting up a machine shop. The business is already established, so the machine shop is just extra. Long story short, the owner has a CNC lathe, CNC VMC, a large manual lathe, small tool room lathe, 2 vertical manual mills, 2 large boring mills, and a large CNC boring Mill. He had another machine shop in a different city that he moved local, and has no one to start it. This is where I come in. Just wondering if you guys have any tips before I get started on what I should look for or start with. The machines are just sitting in the shop wrapped up at the moment so no placement has even started. And he has a tonne of tooling and inserts. I'm pretty excited for this opportunity, and I will likely be back here a lot for suggestions, as I used to do in the past, based on the amount of great machinists and owners that are part of this community. Looking forward to suggestions and getting back to my roots. Cheers
