RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Who's got what running?

Sherline 5400 mill, Camtronics 5Amp drivers, Pacific Scientific steppers,
Sherline mount for Z axis, shop made mounts for X and Y.

EMC BDI software on 266MHz pentium mounted in lunchbox portable computer
case with lcd display.

Intellicad 2001 for cad.

g-code is currently hand written from tool paths designed in CAD.

Works great on steel, aluminum and brass.
