give my 2 cents worth. As the cnc area grew, and although it was a
good draw for the show, my one concern was that many of the cnc's
were not even making anything for the modeling hobby. I feared this
could be a problem, so I always tried to keep my machine making
little things to show the accuracy and complexity a cnc could produce.
(little Red Wing logo's for the kids) Add some misunderstandings to
the mix and the next thing that happens.... Well you get the picture.
I am personally thrilled that we will now have our own show. A hobby
cnc show, RUN by cnc people, for the cnc people. As for NAMES. "It's
hard to go forward, when looking back" (a quote I got from somewhere)
And just to let everyone know how popular this hobby is:
www.cnczone.com Just past the 10,000 registered users!!! Can you
imagine them all showing up! well, that's more than 2 cents worth,
