This will be a 2 axis machine initially. I want the new head to do four
functions:
1. plunge cut using brass or carbon electrodes
2. plunge cut but with a rotating electrode
3. wire cross cut ... wire horizontal
4. wire vertical cut ...wire in the vertical
I've had to figure out what I wanted in the head and spooler design before
playing with the electronics ... I had a chicken and egg situation here ...
which comes first?
.... did you hear the latest chicken and egg joke?
The rooster and the egg are in bed and the rooster is lying there with a big
smile on his face. He says "Well, I guess that answers that question".

In southern Ontario where I'm on holidays because I have to teach during
July and August ... who did I tick off?
