Ron Interesting stuff CNC but way beyond me. Is it sensible for a one off item. ?? It must take quite a while to program it. I think back on all my years and remember my Crystal set ( Radio ) and I am sure I did not have to use a battery to work it. You can't do that with CNC!!!!!!!!!? I have a method of working out Wave patterns to save wood-----------------A piece of plastic pipe with wood bungs at each end in the LOM and a pen clamped to the carriage marking the pipe. Richard
