Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] List goals/aims/results?

Hi to the List,

I have to agree with Gordon, might as well keep it all here. I took a
quick look at the two lists Fred thoughtfully supplied. Didn't see much
activity (need INPUT!). Sherline list is good, and we try to point CNC
potentials HERE. Definitely a lot of Sherline users need their own
space (of course, Sherline CNC conversions . Perhaps we should invite
(point) Fred's mentioned list denizens HERE? There is also a MAXNC
list, and a EMCO C5 list.
