For those who haven't tried it yet, resin inlays are pretty straightforward in concept. You CNC your design into wood (or the material of your...
Agreed. And it'd be especially nice to see an open source hardware vendor get into the game. (Hey, Peter! That's your cue!) But... yeah....
The DROs are definitely a must-have - at least at whatever point I manage to start using the damned thing with any regularity - but I'm still a...
Interesting... Even for hand-cranked operation on well-aged leadscrews? It won't help those of us stuck on parallel, but on the whole that's...
And that is exactly what inspired most of the drool. I don't see an ATC happening any time soon on my ER16 spindle, and I'm not even sure what the...
Don't mind me, I'll just be over here in the corner, drooling. Opening the pod bay doors isn't the only thing it's difficult to convince HAL to...
It seems to me I've seen people discuss adding extra wheels to the Lead, but I can't seem to find the posts at the moment, and my machine doesn't...

Ooooo... shiny! I like that "toolbox" at the end, too. I assume the "tailstock" slides in the v-slot to allow for various length stock? A...
And in .236, according to the changelog. That bug's gotta be as tough to crack as the shell of an NYC cockroach. Probably about as likely to fly...
The things I miss out on when the forums don't send me notices. Looks like I missed at least a page of this thread. And I used to be so good at...
