Actually, I don't even have it anymore. My LSP truggy was the last nitro I had and I'm making the jump to brushless on that rig also. I posted a build thread on that too. E-LSP I do however own a Baja. So not quit brushless only for me. Close though!

Well I'm an engineer (not a fancy high paying one like structural or anything) I design displays for companies. It's not a real high paying job but it pays the bills and let's me play a little. Most (%95) of my RC stuff comes from custom work I do for RCs. So between trading and selling the custom stuff I do I can usually make out pretty good on deals and fund most projects. Plus I have an understanding wife. (most of the time!) I'm not sure what the advertising rules are like on this site or I'd post a link to my site.

As for the CAD and machining. I don't do the machining myself. I have a guy that owns a machine shop local to me that I've worked with for a while now. I do all the CAD work and then just give him drawings and he can cut right from them. If I have a CNC machine and figured out how to use it I don't think I'd EVER leave that thing.
