Regardless of our life choices, you can still pull out your Sears charge card and buy the exact same 3in1 machine I have, and not have to wait or pay thru the nose for the little things you might want. If you were once a gunsmith, then it would not be a big learning curve. Mistakes is how we learn. I've posted Samuel Beckett's adage about failure on my shop wall.

And when asked, I respond "Ah git bet-tah ev-ra day"...
