Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Hobbymat 65

Hi Bill,

The machine was called the Hobbymat MD 65 before the fall of the Berlin wall
and the company nearly went out of business. They are now called Prazi
everywhere. An MD 65 along with the milling machine BFE (if I remember
right) were the start of my engineering shop 25 years ago. Good machines but
I'd out grown them with the first job I tried to machine.

Regards,

Terry

PS. I also have nothing to do with the advert.


| There is a Hobbymat MD 65 on eBay for sale that is the European version
of
| the Prazi SD300.
| It can be easily converted to CNC, takes new plates/motor mounts at the
| cross slide and at the right end for driving the lead screw.
| If you take a look at the Prazi SD 300 you will see how it is done.
| I have no interest in this unit at all, financial or otherwise
