I think I have some man-love for Ben.

I certainly have a man crush on Ben Krasnow. My wife even talked him into sending me a birthday message. He was thinking it was pretty funny thing to request.

That’s pretty impressive.

This seems like it could be useful for the space tool collection

That’s awesome, I would like to see if it is possible to make one for the head of my 5Axis.

You might be underestimating the difficulty involved in the transition from “lab experiment” to “reliable waterjet machine used by non-specialists”. :slight_smile:

I bet you can do it Chris. May need stronger steppers/servos & bearings, but I bet you can do it.

Probably. I did some cost analysis on the build and since I’d use it for glass almost exclusively a ring saw would be better for me in the long run.
