I have a Dell Inspiron 2600 Pentium III with 384 Megs of ram. It is setup as a
dual boot - Linux/EMC2.1 BDI and Windows XP Home. It runs my stepper drivers
just fine out of the printer port. I bought it new about 5 years ago or so.

Greetings;
Is there a key assignment that will run the A axis, like the first three, so I
don't have to fool with the mouse to move it?

Also check out mikebeck.org ... gantry kit is abut $500,
electronics / motors are extra. Check with Mike for details.
(no affiliation, just considering being a customer)
Mike sells a beefed up version of the HobbyCNC.com plans in kit form
from what I can tell.

Fenn,
Thanks for these hints, looks like we have a solution!
I'm definitely interested in working out the Netier XL1000.
I have not investigated homebrew servos. I would like to talk about that in
more detail.
Perhaps we can talk more directly offline, or phone, or Skype. Please send
me your co
Ian,

I don't think this makes any difference to the restart in middle
of G-code program. Yo
Hmmm.
All we did was use one of those non-metal wind-up microwave turntables :)

Marcin,
I found your Factor E project very interesting and hope to contribute.
For the control, you might wish to investigate the use of a "thin client"
which is a diskless, lightweight computer intended mainly for web surfing.
I've been playing around with the Netier XL1000; see:

Hi,
You may remember my recent posts about my attempts to get a reasonable
speed out of a stepper motor for driving a little lathe spindle. I'm now
a bit confused. I am using a motor of indeterminate voltage (no plate on
it) but which I think is probably about 4.5 - 5 volt and I am driving it

Nice idea, I have a netwok analyser and have made 10Ghz discones for
fun, just built an EMC 4 axis mill. Time to combine hobbies.
