Brian when they become available I'll send you one.

The importer here is out in China at that factory now.   So it's only a few weeks, I'll get two when available.

Does anyone know if the Galil plugin will work with the Galil 2180 ethernet card.  I ask because it is the older version.

Thanks,

Bill

Wayne,
I am started back on the Delta Tau! and I am thinking that I need to buy a Galil to test threading...  after I have that done I think your China card is about top of the list! I like the idea of a nice inexpensive card!

Thanks Brian,
I guess we'll see.  I just bought one and will be trying it in the coming weeks.  I asked the Galil people and they said the only difference was that the 22xx has faster ethernet, but like I said, we'll see.

Roo,
I have been thinking about taking a ride down to work with you on your lathe... what do you think about that? I would like to work with  you to get the extended IO working as well as the threading! There is just so much to do and I know I am not going to have the time that is needed to wire up a test stand :(

Tell me if you think that would work for you?

Thanks
Brian

Okay I think that I should work on getting the data for the threading first :) I will have time in a few weeks (I have OEM stuff that I need to get done as well as LCam Pro that I have to do ). So I will see about getting some info from Galil about how to engage the gearing and we will go from there !

This is going to be fun
Brian
