You read that headline correctly, power drawbars for the PCNC 440 are now available! Many find themselves purchasing machines on a budget, and therefore tend to skip some of the flashier accessories, or buyers don’t see a need to make tool changes quickly if they are only machining for hobby, prototyping, or some other non-production purpose. But, the power drawbar is an accessory that most users place in the “need” column, instead of the “want” column.

We've got a lot of exciting things happening at the #Tormach2016 Open House, happening tomorrow - there's still time to RSVP - but we're really excited to show off some of our latest accessories! We just installed the first PCNC 440 power drawbar and automatic tool changer, and they'll be up and running during the open house.

While in high school, Scott Pobjoy took a part-time job at Cash Manufacturing Company, a custom machine shop and specialty manufacturer of supplies and accessories for firearms. High school ended and Pobjoy accepted a position as a full-time machinist in the shop. Purchasing the company from founder Ted D. Cash in 2006, Pobjoy has ramped up production. Cash Manufacturing now boasts a catalog of 100 parts and accessories.

This is too cool.   If you're into CNC machining, this is great.  If you're into knife making, this is also great.  If you're into both - then it probably doesn't get much better than this :) Introducing Knifemaking Tuesdays John (and Erik) Grimsmo make small-batch production knives and accessories out of their garage in Ontario, Canada, and sell their wares on johngrimsmo.com.
