Sounds like a typical Chinese low-end "this could never work, but is cheaper than the ones that do work, so we get all the sales" product. I wonder, looking at old ads from the Victorian era if this is new or not. There are all sorts of things that look to be based on a false premise, but low-end Chinese stuff seems to be new on the "true premise, designed wrong, not tested, ship anyway" part of the space. On the plus side, you probably paid less for the metal than you could buy the stock for, and it's nearly functional. But I do wonder if Victorian Birmingham shipped this sort of "can't work, never worked, we don't care" scrap metal. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
