Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] DynaMyte2400

Bengt,
Most folks strip all the electronics out and substitute modern PC
controls and cad/cam programs.
The old motor drives are frequently found to be broken and underpowered.
New motors and ~2/1 belt drive makes the machine better than new.
The mechanics of the machine are very nice, otherwise. Good iron.
Prices are highly variable. All depends on the seller, conditions, etc.
