Buck,

A Sherline will take light cuts in steel, but it will not cut like a
$30,000 mill.

Sherline Mills include a Vector XT Cad cd. This program is free for
use to new Sherline customers for up to 6 months. During that period
of time they can register the program for continued use. Sherline
customers are also eligible for special discounts on the full cad-cam
version.

These discounts are similar to those that are offered to this Yahoo
group at all times. The Cad-Cam version is about 1/2 price.

For access to these price you may simply follow the link in my
signature.

IMService is also a Sherline dealer and we offer discount pricing for
our servo kits and systems, bundled with DeskCNC and a Sherline mill.
