    It’s a custom built unit. It’s fast and took some getting used to after using a slow machine.

    Warning graphic images of what happens when you don’t focus with a fast machine:

    Yep I can see the break in the end of the thumb. Also I see the break on the index finger. Before the pins. Ouch.

    Looks like the right hand.
