I have had a wood shop for most of my 78 years, not a newcomer/beginner. I have many pieces of machinery including a two head CNC Router. I have sold many pieces also. None ever leave my shop without a do-over to make them like new. Professionals from all walks of life have been in our shops and wonder if we use the machinery because it is so pristine. Fine machinery, just like fine quality product, has made our company a lot of money. Am I proud of that? You bet and the machinery I buy will look as near to brand new when I sell it as it can be.
BTW: Even though we are retired, the shop operates 12 to 14 hours a day 7 days a week from July to February. What do I do the remainder of my time? Pound leather and enjoy life.
That is my .02
