What would you guy think

[CNCadmin]

if CNCzone came out with a online magazine every 3 months that was all about CNC machining. It would include reviews of software, product anounncments and how to articles?

Sounds great to me as well.

[bcromwell]

I would be interested, just make it for both hobbiest (me) and real machinest (not me)!!

I'd bite on that one.

It does sound good, but what about adding a website to the forums? I guess that would be a lot of work/expense though.

Absolutely... Would be a grand thing to have.

Seems like most professional references and wares in the CNC/Machining world requires the reader to invest money (Usually obscene amounts). It'd be nice to have a advertiser supported E-zine that can be a trusted reference.

Anything that fuels the Hobbist base will cause prices of software and Parts to reduce to nominal levels. With what we've got now a servo system can be done for about $1000 now which is probably about half of what could be done a year ago. for example: If the hobbiest community can double or triple over the next year then there will be a source that will introduce a source for servos and controllers that will bring that down even further into grasp of the home builder. Maybe even Linear slides and ballscrews will come down to reality. Things are different to a supplier when their customer is no longer industry and becomes the home consumer. Retail goes out the door and competiton comes into play and the guy with the best + lowest cost solution wins.

User contributed projects would be a nice feature to have in there also. With complete plans available in DXF format for additional $. to further support the costs.
