RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Why EDM???

Get a broken tap out of a piece you have invested 10 hours machining,
putting holes in hardened materials, knowledge and learning, etc. . . . . .

BTW, Dan Mauch has an excellent set of plans for building a computer
controlled EDM machine. I have the Home Shop Machinist reprint, but never
could understand the electronic. The setup Dan has in the plans is easy to
understand. I would suggest to anyone interested in EDM to spend the $45 for
the book. It includes the software to run the machine in the price.
