How long will that DMG Mori last in SHTF scenario though? Where do you get parts for it?
What's the really low-tech way to machine items? Suppose you had to bootstrap a machine shop from one machine, building or repairing each machine from scratch.

From scratch. Hmmm.
Youll need a source for metal. Iron mine. Scrap yard. Etc.
You'll need a forge.
Then, you'll need a foundry.
Then, you'll need milling capabilities.
A series of tools to build more tools.
If you planned ahead and got enough spare parts, and second machine to make other parts... then, it might last forever.
That'd be two machines each with their own spare parts.
