Surfing the web and another forum, found a person who goes by the name "Simpson36."
He has a youtube channel under the same name, and you can follow him over on the Machsupport forum.
The things he has made and done are amazing, and he has documented it all. Made his own scratch built machining center, a dynamic balancer, a VERY nice 4th axis with an air lock, and probably a lot more stuff that I haven't found yet.
This is his youtube channel

Apparently he started a business from his hobby.
Yes, I am going to steal a lot of his ideas for my own tools. I admit it, I don't care.
