To far in the past, to many damn rx TX rtx and 40 and 50 and numbers in names

Amazon did me dirty with luna and rug pulled GOG from the library. I've been playing KCD2 for the past while I don't do much gaming. Life doesn't give me time so I only get a few hours a week. But still it was my one of few mental escapes. Regardless, I looked into other cloud gaming options and said fuck it and fuck them. I'm going to buy a pc. It's been years since I've kept up with what the hell is what . The most up-to-date I am is that I'm gona pay, pay enough to have to hide from the wife.

This seems like over kill for playing most games I'd do on ultra but I don't know. Plus it be nice to not lust over new titles that I may not be able to run like I did with my previous machine. (Laptop, i7 4700mq gt 740M) which i still use on the regular.

Almost all of my play will be done on a 60" plasma tv. Maybe at some point I'd play on a fancy 4k monitor but that's far away. Because I like sitting in my bed at night and playing with a controller.

Any old timers run a horizontal boring mill?

Need some help with overcoming the initial hurdles of a learnjng curve. I'm in a fake it till I make it type situation right now. We acquired most of the equipment that a machine/fab shop would have and most of them, there is plenty of information online to learn from. Except for the horizontal boring mill, and I am struggling. The tooling all needs to be made up for it. Nothing I can purchase direct. The spindle is a MT6. My supplier can only get me reducers to MT5. And setting up parts is quite time consuming.

Any advice or know how on being able to turn a profit on this machine would be appreciated.

The machine is a TOS W100 in mostly good working order. Apart from the boring head dropping 0.020" if I cut in reverse travel after forward travel cutting.

Thanks
