   Thanks for writing the nice summary.   
      
   I've followed that first one almost to excess, at tech-oriented flea   
   markets, second hand dealers who buy auction lots of industrial equipment   
   and local metal fabricators' scrap piles. Last night I visited the local   
   Maker Space and found I had at least one of almost all metalworking   
   machinery and electronic test equipment they did, except for CNC, which I   
   haven't needed because so much of what I make is cut-and-try matching to   
   existing parts.   
      
   I should have mentioned these earlier. Sorry, age-tempered CRS.
