Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] re: universal head was Re: Digest Number 2026

The one I saw appeared to be able to swing left/right, front/back, and rotate.
Of course, if it had rotate, it would only need front/back, or right/left, and
they would be interchangeable. I just checked out the ebay pics, and they
aren't even close.
