Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: mastercam

I shop build almost everything if it is possible, I do not see a thing wrong
with it. I plan on starting to build my own CNC set up soon and think the
info. is a very valuable resource on this forum. Some folks do not have the
money to just go out and pay the high dollars. Also there is not a thing
wrong with learning how things work. It is like owning a computer, you can
buy one and when something goes wrong throw it away and buy another. I do
not do things that way, I buy something, I also want to know how it works so
I can do the maintenance, repairs, rebuilding, upgrading, etc.
The main thing is Satisfaction of saying I did it
