Centroid missed out...

Post by lilb93 »

Was at the Cabin Fever Expo in Lebanon, PA today. Was surprised to see Tromach, PMDX, and Artsoft there and no Centroid.
There was about 3000 people there, and most were home machinists. Would have been a great time for Centroid to get it's name back out in the DYI market. It's only a two day show Saturday and Sunday.
Barnesville, PA.

I always thought it would take longer to grow old.

Hey! I was there to. It's a great show. Was thinking the same thing. Thats were i got introduced to the cnc world. I miss the workshops they used to do.
Ajax cnc was there years ago. So was novakon and a couple of others. The cnc stuff seems to be dropping off at the show.
The possibility of poor winter weather doesn't help.

There's very little actual interest in CNC there. I've been there several times with Novakon (I designed and build the PDB and ATC for the Novakon machines). Little or no business ever came out of attending Cabin Fever.
