Nice work Mike, I see you are up to your old tricks and overkilling the wiring job
Looks very neat though, you will give the local contractors a bad name!

What is the first planned job?

Jaguar pattern billet front lower control arms are definitely something I plan to make in the future. The cast steel ones are very heavy and they could look a lot tidier.

Mike,

I've been following your Cobra build for quite a while and have really enjoyed seeing your craftsmanship and machining skills. Frankly, at least half of the reason I follow your build is to see your machine work. I'm a hobby machinist as well, so following this thread is a "twofer" for me. You are really going to enjoy using the CNC capabilities of your new mill. I have a Bridgeport two axis CNC mill and am always amazed at the amount of time and labor that can be saved in comparison to using manual machinery, and in many cases tasks can be done that would be very difficult or impossible with manual machinery. You're really going to love that new machine and the Lagun mills are a first rate machine.

Enjoy

Ted

If my shop looked that good, I'd just put in a refrigerator and a cot and sell the house !

I figured I'd better follow the manual to the letter in case there were any issues with the box in the future.

I think one of the first jobs will be a set of billet bonnet and boot hinges.

Cheers
