Markus,

So right...

The other problem is when you try to make lines for front panels or
any other sdort of cutting acition which requires at least a somewhat
steady cutting speed. the tanbo style of axis arrangement means that
often you will be needing the "spin" axis to be moving FAR faster
than it is capable of moving, according to the laws of physics. Not a
problem for drilling; but there's areson wyou don't see thius type of
axis arrangement in ttypical cutting cnc's...

Because if it were viable, the lower cost of mfg. would surely make
it prominent...
