Iowa Anyone?

[EvanZ]

Hey folks, was just thinking I should check and see if there are any fellow diy cnc builders in the state of Iowa? I'm at school at ISU and DMACC. I live in Ames. So anyone around the area I would love to get together with local cncers. I just moved to Iowa back in June. Still adjusting to it.

Thanks folks,
Evan

Hey Evan,
I am from Des Moines!! I am about half way through a Bridgeport cnc conversion after building a cnc plasma table. What kind of cnc projects you have going on right now?
Later,
Aaron

SWEET. It'll be nice to meet up with someone that is into CNC too. Do you have IM? Check your PM. Anyone else in our area?

I live in Davenport Iowa (aka the east coast) along the Mississippi river.

There's only three of us in Iowa? Hippy, what are you working on man?

Evan,

I am in Cedar Falls. I have a 2.5 x 11 x 25 homebuilt cnc router using a Rotozip for a spindle. It is running EMC2 software on Ubuntu. I cut out balsa RC airplane parts and some sign work. I have done a few projects using Compufoil and CAMBAM to produce the g-code.

Nice nice, good to know there are more of us. It's good to see there are more of us. Quad cities is a trip but not to bad none the less. Aaron (TiggerAaron) and I have been doing alot of work together. My 2'X3'X6" metal maching is close to done. We have been wanting to put together an Iowa group, thinking of doing a few get togethers a year and just geek out like us CNCers do. How far is everybody from Ames IA? I know for most of you is't a good ride, but why not huh?
