I dunno, but i'd say it will at least require a few goats and voodoo dolls!

How do you come to the idea that EDM would be straightforward in any way?

At the moment i consider it "possible" at best, but i can think of many
problems that will probably spring up, and as is usual with new processes
there will be about 1000 times more problems i haven't even remotely
considered.

Each new process will have it's problems to overcome, but i'm amazed that
you think EDM will be easy to do...
I'll be very happy to hear about any work done in that direction though,
i'm very curious about it and it seems it could have serious advantages
compared to mechanical milling.
