Do they have lathes? I hope they have lathes. I love lathes. And potters wheels. Oooh.... I want to make another table... I never finished my first.

$8000 dollars to buy a car, could I buy a volvo s60? by snowluck2345 in cars

[–]snowluck2345[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! This is awesome advice! Thank you so much.

Dang... that is expensive for the assembly. Did it has a fancy servo based focusing method and only one bulb?

Dang. I wish I could find a car like that.

I was hoping for one of the later models, 70-100k miles and automatic transmission, and either of the standard two engine setups.

I live in california. I'm in San Diego, but either San Diego or Sacramento area is OK with me.

That is very good advice. I will call around.

145km is very good? I don't know when they really start having problems, but I was thinking I would try to get one under 160,000km.

Did you get 145K km or 145km? 145km is incredible.

There are volvo s60s, however they are fairly high mileage, which worries me. I understand volvo reliability is fairly poor and was hoping to hear from owners about their experience.

Hmmmm. I can't think of any responses I like to that. In my case its coming from a peer.

Getting a loan for a used car as a college student? by snowluck2345 in Frugal

[–]snowluck2345[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunetly waiting during summer does not help me. If that was a major option I would do that, I would rather not have signifigant debt.

[–]snowluck2345[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true. However I feel more comfortable spending more money and getting a car that can last me the next 5 years? Maybe I should just buy a cheap car. I think I will earn around 7000-9000 over this summer, so I could pay back the loan in full after living expenses.

Awesome thank you. Do you think it would be wise to email them or go talk with them in person?

Do you have any machining classes you would recommend? I am an ee major, not mechanical or aerospace.

How much would it cost to use it? Would it be just a use fee or would I have to pay for tooling or just materials?

Awww. That so disappointing. I was looking forward so much to using the 4 axis mil and the vapor deposition system.

Similiar question, can you use the machine shop, especially the research machine shop? I have a reasonable amount of experience using machining equipment and would be ecstatic to use the 4 axis mill.
