Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Introduction & request for help

Hi, yep it is a good price, i used motors from my junk box. x,y one kind,z
another. I guess there 23 frames. I brought the output to the stepers to a
terminal board then to resistors and motor. The parallel port gets wired
from the conn to the board. so it was easier to stuff a switch in there, was
using stepster,while waiting to afford Desknc.There is another product with
about the same circuit, but has a connector/change box so you can do what
ever, also another with the same basic output circuit but includes a smart
chip on board and has more features and i think based both ends on terminal
strip. Desknc is fine so far. i haven't done any fancy cad/can/converta
stuff yet.cul brian
