I apreciate your reply. I'm close to 100% sure I could organize a
replacement for that channel here - IMHO really no reason not to ship
plans if your customer knows that getting parts needs to improvise. I
mean I really do expect to have problems with getting the SAME parts
as you use in your constructions here just because of the
inches/metrics difference between the place you and I live, so
expecting a fool prove plan for the conditions as they are here for me
would be foolish. BUT, just get ideas and the experience that is
inside your plans IS worth the price of the plans.
Btw, I don't want to build a milling machine to do PCB milling, but I
need an acurate (and faster) way to drill the holes into the PCB and
that's where a CNC milling machine comes in handy. Besides, I also
would apreciate having a simple CNC milling machine for other ocasions
(not PCB related).
Ok, I do have a question :-) What I did not see / read on your pages
is what kind of sliders you use. I.e. if you use regular threaded
stocks and nuts or if you use more precise stuff and of course if it's
really possilbe by using regular threaded stocks / nuts only to reach
the precision you claim for the "brute".
Bottom line is I'm still interested in getting your plans (for the
burte), cause I'm more than convinced that they contain enough detail
information saving me hours of hassle hence justifying the price. Wire
transfering shipping charges along with the price of the plans to any
bank acount of yours you name (in a privat e-mail to me of course)
would just take some mouse clicks. (That's something we're really good
at here in Switzerland. We don't use checks of any nature anymore for
at least more than 20 years now :))) )
