I'd love to come to the workshop, hopefully transportation and funds will
permit. If i can come, i will hopefully bring some of my axis servos and
drives and maybe the VFD off of my machine, just to play with. if i
actually have it running at that time i might not be able to, but i dont
know. No way i could bring the whole machine, as it's roughly 4 tons. I'll
also hopefully have a mesa card to be playin with
