Cable, connectors, no EDM or DRO content at all

Mendelson Electronics (http://www.meci.com) currently has a wide selection
of Belden Infinity high-flex-life cable at a very good price. They have
16, 18, and 20 gage. (The 20 gage is perfect for Sherline conversions
that use 2A controllers. You can use DB9 solder-cup connectors with it.)
This is the older 7000-series cable, rated at 4 million flexes.
So I lied about the "no CNC content"... :-)
Best regards,
Randy (who does photoetching, which is totally CAD-related. Photoetching
artwork requires "tool width" compensation based on the material
thickness just like G-code does for cutter diameter in order to obtain
accurately-sized parts. I do all my artwork in VersaCAD and hand-edit the
Postscript output for the aforementioned edge effect compensation.)
