I’ve never made the fact that Reher-Morrison performs machine work for Endyn a secret. In fact, as Darrin will attest, we take all of our visiting customers (and engine-building “students”) to the R-M facility to show them where and how the machining operations we can’t perform in-house take place. R-M provides the highest-quality machine work available in this part of the country, and I feel very fortunate that David allows his machinists to work on our “tiny” engine pieces. I’ve known the R-M guys seemingly forever, and back in the mid-eighties, Mike Garvie was welding Ford heads for me in between all the Chevy heads / manifolds he was doing for R-M. If you look at Mike’s current schedule, he’s either hanging his hat in Arlington, or Ft. Worth on a daily basis, as his talents are in great demand at each of our shops
I’ve been working toward bringing a full five-axis head-machining center into our shop for a couple years now, but I’ve been slow learning another “language” (CadCam), which is essential, since none of the CNC systems are simply plug and play, regardless of what their manufacturers say.
At this point in my life, I’m not willing to hire more employees or add stress to my life. Hell, I retired back in ’87, and everything we do at Endyn these days is simply “hobby” for me….
While at PRI last week, we spent a lot of time looking at all the killer CNC block machining and honing equipment. I’m presently under the impression that damned near anyone can operate these machines….but I just don’t think the IRS will put up with it…..remember Endyn is my hobby shop….
