Yeah, I have one of the original CNC Bridgeports, a manual one and 3000 more sq, ft. of machines to have fun with.

I knew a guy with a Bridgeport and I remember him saying it's the only machine on earth that can replicate its self (machine all the parts required to make another Bridgeport)  Is that correct?

Well, it's probably not the only machine that can do it, we've come a long way baby. It depends on just how for you wanted to go. Heat treating (and other stuff) would still need to be done, you can't do that with a milling machine.

Hammers can reproduce themselves. But again, other things will likely be needed.

Food for thought.
