I've been surfacing a casting that is larger than my machine envelope.   Not 
only that although pattern was 5/8" thick MDF the casting ended up with thicker 
and thinner parts.   With it shimmed and moving clamps around I managed to 
flatten the bottom and then clamp it down and surface the top.  But it took a 
long time.

I found LinuxCNC easy enough to use for this.  Just kept resetting x or y home 
and restarting the G_code.  

Anyone used one of these?

Or with the round carbide inserts

Alternatively since I use the Tormach Tooling at a much higher price there is 
this flycutter.
