As the flier in the add shows it was made to mount on the toolpost of a lathe. Making a new dovetailed back plate was what I was leaning towards. Any suggestion for material for this? A big slab of cast iron would be nice but I imagine but too pricey. I have no plans to motorize it right now. _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
