Well, while waiting for Joe to complete my kit I have been busy making the bearing slides.
You can see in the attached pictures some of the completed slides and also a shot my my Sherline CNC mill busy cutting.
My next project is to build a PC for the Router. I had debated putting a second parallel port in the PC that I use for Mach 3 with my Sherline Mill and Lathe as well as DeskCNC with my IMService CNC Router, but as my new Router will be across the other side of the room I decided that I did not want to run a long cable.
I had a PC hanging around that I built as an music player some while ago and decided to cannibalize that. It has a mini flex motherboard so I ordered a new small case for it - the original one was significantly customized
and I may decide to also but the Xylotex controller board and CNC4PC multifunction board in the same case - yet to be decided.
