Jeez tomp, that thing got a flux capacitor in it yet? Hell I'd just piss on the spark plug if I thought it would do any good....LOL that is some deep stuff you are playing with man glad and amazed that you are able to do it with linuxcnc. Keep on Merlin's on that is some very interesting work. Always liked EDM machines I have a neighbor who owns a shop with three or four wire EDM's and he does some cool stuff with those I think they were Mitsubishi models. They basically run night and day when he has work for them. None are retrofitted tho but he does have an index mill running on mach3 believe it or not...peace
