about 4 ft. in front of the mill. The plasma torch was mounted on the
end of it. I put a small water tank under it to catch the sparks,
dust and smoke.... <snip>

Don,
Great idea! That will for sure keep the crud off the mill! I was
thinking you needed the Z axis but your right, its not required at
all. I'm using CNCPro and was going to use the coolant control for
the plasma control. Thanks much! Now if you can come up with an
equally simple EDM you will solve the rest of my problems :)
