RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] CNC Without a PC for Amish

HI list,

Sounds like it's time to dig out the old ASR-33 teletype! Or was it KSR? I
can never remember. OK, the one with the tape reader/punch.

Your "edit" by typing a block. If you make a mistake, you "rub out" with
all holes (7Fh or FFh) and type the block again!
