I built my CNC mill with my wife. She's helping me build my boat. We've been married 6 years, and we enjoy working on projects together. We also try to spend as much time with extended family as possible.


Awesome, glad to hear you've been able to find a balance. Sounds like a big part of that is your shared interests in these areas with your wife which allows you to focus the time there.

Out of curiosity, how much technical knowledge was needed for the CNC mill?

Most definitely. I'm not a sit on the couch and watch TV sort of guy. I need to be doing something, and I love that my wife loves to join me in my endeavors.

6-8 hours of research.


Thanks for validating my attempted trajectory. It's really encouraging to hear stuff like this. Kudos to you for making life just as you want it.
