1) Servo or stepper motors?
2) how powerful of a router motor?
3) what about tool changers?
4) Is three axis enough? - I'd like to turn legs and some carving
5) Why do hobbiest level machines communicate with the PC via
serial/parallel ports, but commercial units use ethernet?
Wayne: Rather than go into a rant on this topic which will
almost-certainly at least EVOLVE into OT, if not considered so at the outset, e-mail me
direct (JanRwl@...). In '86, I built a big X-Y for a WW firm in England,
shipped it, flew over, installed it, had tea and crumpets and flew home. Whew! So
I kinda-almost-nearly know SUMPIN about it all. Jan Rowland
