Hello all:
I applaud slooper for asking a most relevant question. I think the
CNCZONE is a wonderful web site, but it lacks organization in getting
newcomers up to speed.
A general FAQ about the most relevant answers to questions about the things needed to make a CNC machine. Once a person gets up to speed with these general answers about the makeup and issues about making a machine, he can ask more specfic questions about making a particular kind of machine.
The CNCZONE is a depositary of creativity and genius, we need to make it where newcomers can share in that genius quickly and easily.
In humble humility,
