Bubba:
The reason for the cost increase is the linear strips instead of rotary, my
father and I are working on this together and he doesnt like the idea of
using a wire than can slip or stretch when linear scales are available for a
little extra. Since I use my mill/drill for building match-grade rifles,
slippage like could happen with a wire could cause massive problems if a
hole is .001" in the wrong place, X/Y location is critical in most stuff I
do, but depth isnt as critical as most critical parts are through-holes
instead of plunge cuts.
