I built a Sherline 5400 mill with individual plus limit, minus limit and home
switches on all three axes for NIST. Before I delivered it I took it to NAMES
this past April. I never took any pictures though :(... I'm going to build at
least one more, maybe two but I have four more sets of brackets (black
anodised aluminum to match the mill!). Did anyone who went to NAMES get a
picture of this?
