Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Milling machines in UK (was Ballscrews supply (in the UK))

Abbey,
eBay is an excellent place to pick up some bargains
and shift some that stuff that you'll never think
you're going to use,
that I've done to afford building my CNC

I'm assuming you're not a mad axe person and was
wandering if you wish to see my machine shop or have a
chat you'd be very welcome

many thanks Stuart--- Abby Katt <cnc@...>
