Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Laser level/Photo/Rhino

Hi Brian and All:
     Brian I want to thank you for the information on DAVID.
This would be an interesting project for me after I get my Serline cutting
3D and using the 4th axis for my present projects.
                                        GOD'S BLESSINGS
                                                    Bill
