RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] CNC Knee Mill

I'm looking for a CNC bridgeport mill or something similar. Does anybody
know where or who has one that would like to sell it.

Thanks,
Alex

One reason that hasn't been mentioned yet is that it works on a Real Time
linux platform. Windows based programs have a nasty habit of wandering off
to do a bit of housework now and again and this can affect the smoothness of
the output. This is not a problem with most kinds of program but if your
mill hesitates even for a split second with its spindle spinning at several
thousand rpm, you are likely to get a step in the cut. Routing wood this
probably won't matter but if you are making a precision part in metal it
could be significant.
