Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Mill DRO

Hi Kory:
Shooting Star will probably be by far the cheapest system you will find.
Will you give us a product review on the Prazi once you've had a chance to
drive it for a while?
I've always been curious about them, but they sure have a hefty price tag!
Cheers

Marcus
