If you have one, or have used a Ghost Gunner machine, how difficult are they to use? Is it super involved? How often do you change end mills and bits? Are there parts of the mill that require additional “out of the mill” work? Are there add ons, or optional stuff that lead to a better or more easily made finished product? What quality is the final product like? Thanks. |

I use a Win 7 laptop to run the GG3 just about runs out of the box.
Change bits every 50. At 150 through the machine, getting a bit worn. It is a hobby device, not a production CNC machine. Tends to be a bit tight on internal dimensions, I also run the cleanup program in addition to the milling program to get close to mil spec.  Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File |

Would be fun to do a Balimoy A1 overstamp to M4A1. |

I'm sure you have no time on your hands whatsoever and your mind is constantly stimulated with the ever changing situation.
