    I came to the zone because I’m building a 4 X 8 router. Just spending time here keeps putting distractions in front of me. I really could use a good digitizing arm, and on, and on, and on, ……………….

    re: My primary machinery interests...

    Should have explained better. This pendant started out as two stainless manifolds (for lab use). I added some crystal beads, hematite and sterling. I just purchased a cylindrical chain that fits well and will epoxy right into each inlet tube. This early photo doesn't show its mirror finish. I'll send you another pic.

    My current project is a rotary mill. It is more like a lathe with controllable Z axis.
    Y, Z and A axes only. Gantry style, but there is no X axis.

    This site does seem to be to be primarily used by builders. As I have only been using CNC's for five years I cant imagine the degree of difficulty involved in building a machine. But who knows twenty years down the road. Oh well back to the books......... By the way as for the vote, So far I ve just been using Mills and lathes(manual and CNC.)
