Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] PIC DRO _now_ i've made it a stupid question

Really, if someone can come up with accurate grating patterns on film or

where to get such grating patterns?

It seems that they can print the strips, so the question is will they do it?
the Heds module i'm looking at is a rotary, so it has two sets of grates to
look at
It has a small stainless steel grating with ~6 holes apiece, apparently
photoetched.
The thought i'm having is what is stopping you from using a piece of the
linear strip as your grating. might need a larger pair of holes to keep the
light in the
right place.
