Remember when you had to wait a week for a custom router bit?
I was at a big tool show in Atlanta maybe 8 years back. Saw a guy with a small booth making custom bits on the spot with a CNC grinder. Took him 20 minutes. I needed a specific profile for a tricky crown molding job. Bought one right there. Changed my whole shop. Now I order online and get it in two days, sometimes less. Used to plan jobs around the mail. Now I just click. That show made me see how slow things were. Anyone else miss the old wait, or is the speed just better?
