If I get it wrong I will try again. As to my background. I am an 84 yr old retired
Electronic tech. Started in 1965 as a BC - CNC repairmen. All types of machine tools.
Tube type, transistor on up to CNC controllers. In 2000 - 2010 retro fitted BC controls
To CNC. About 8yr ago I add mach3 to small milling machine and lathe. These I use on my choppy of
Making small steam engines. Tired of that and did wood carving for six year. I had to give that up due to
Poor eye sight. So now I am building wood router for the fun of it. When I say wood I mean about all wood
As I had all ready made the controls for my old machines l decided to take easy way out. I am now the proud
Own
Her a Pmdx 340 controller. I'll save the rest as I develope the machine.
I was also married for 63 yr. My very dear wife passed away this last June. I now live alone, with many fond
Memores. Thanks for bearing with me.
