Hi Jan,

The last thing I wanted to do was upset an old Troll :-))

The term clock-work/steam-powered means old, I'm a Brit.

Is there some reason, besides the universal hate of Gates, that you don't use Win 3.1 on your machine and then use a Dos based control program. I have two 386 laptop machines and thought they couldn't handle a CNC machine. I also have a Harrison 280 CNC lathe which at present has a stepper tool-changer and servo motors X-Z axis. This machine appears to be very sick and in need of some sort of rebuild. It has an Acorn main board. I was thinking of converting to a P100 board and trying to figure how to run the servos using TurboCNC.

Regards,

Terry

Terry: A fair question,
