George Ramsower, just north of San Antonio. I do like my "Micro Mill" as they are called but I just call it a "Desktop Mill". Lately, I've been creating the rest of an alphabet. I already have 0-9 numbers and nine alpha characters written. As I get better, I intend to get back onto this particular software project. The objective here is to be able to make mail box tags and see if anyone will buy them. If there aren't any sales, it's not a big deal as then I can make one for MY mail box. That's all I really wanted to do anyway! I'll end up with labels and tags on several things around here. Then I can get back to building parts for my next steam engine.
