From "Car Nut" to precision
parts
I’ve always been somewhat of a performance and racing
fanatic…somewhat of a “car nut” if you want to call it that.
A few years ago I got burned out on the corporate life,
and I wanted to switch gears and do something that I like
and have passion for. A friend of mine who was
involved with CNC Machines and was shopping CAD/CAM software
introduced me into the industry; he was the one who informed
me about OneCNC. We exchanged notes and I learned what
I needed to do to get involved with the industry. Not long
after, I decided to take the plunge and purchased a new
Hurco VM1. Hargett Precision Products was underway,
and business took off.
The primary focus of my business is to design, develop
and manufacture my own line of products which consists of
high performance Porsche parts, racing parts, street
performance parts, and typical job shop parts. |

The machine and software that I chose
has allowed me to be extremely successful in the last 2
years. I have been really happy with the decision I made.
When I initially involved myself with the manufacturing
industry, I tried a ton of CAM programs: MasterCAM, EasyCAM,
SurfCAM, there was an entire plethora of programs to
evaluate. All of them were really, really expensive and had
a pretty deep learning curve; none of them were what I would
call intuitive at all. I consider myself somewhat computer
savvy, and I have always believed that a program should
really be about ease of use and intuitiveness, and that is
the first thing that really set OneCNC apart from all of the
rest. |

In terms of functionality, OneCNC was
completely capable of handling my complex parts.
When guys ask me why I chose my CAM system, there are three
things I say:
1. If you look at the user interface, and ease of use, and
the amount of time you will spend getting up and running, no
one compares to OneCNC No one should have to spend weeks,
or months, or whatever it is to learn a new program. 2.
The cost of OneCNC is hands down the best value for CAM out
there! And 3. The support; I mean, anytime I’ve had a
question or did not understand something, the support and
online board have been absolutely great. |

One reason I keep my customers coming back is because I have
the ability to design, program, and machine it very quickly and
very fast. OneCNC is a huge part of that process because
the CAM portion is a breeze.
