Hey Cecil,
Nice to meet ya. I'm down here in Maryville towards the foothills
parkway. There are a couple guys local that are polluted with the CNC Bug
like me. Connor AK Billy is up in Knoxville and he has built a router and
a benchtopprecision mill. I have built a large benchtopprecision mill and
sold it to buy this Cincinnati Arrow VMC I am working on with the dreams of
making money with it. It is nearly completed and getting closer everyday.
Having a get together sounds like fun although I doubt I would be as
interesting as these LinuxCNC gurus. Peace
Pete
