Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] turret tool post for lathe

Hi Alex,
I did think of this. The main problem is that there are only 5 input pins
available on the parallel port. I decided that estop,limits,home and spindle
index were more important. Of course I could fit another parallel port. So
many things to do - so little time in which to do them :-)
