Crazy CNC Idea

[watzmann]

Hi All ,

am new here , but have a an idea an want share it with u , am a mechtronics engineer , so am doing robots still small but i like them so i have a good mechanical and electroinics experiance .

i used many cnc machines , and i made a small router , but now am thinking of buildning a wire cutting machine ,

but i don't know if it's possible or not , at least now i think it's possible , i'll made it a 3 Axis one , controlled with a small computer , containing water poll of course with Rezin as a treating chemical for the water , hope to hear from you , if am crazy or it's good idea .
