Files uploaded, kind of... LOL
Stefan, I have no problem keeping the subject here. My main concern is
space. We're already at 90% capacity in the Files section, and we are just
starting drilling station material.
I will go wherever the group wants to go. If people start posting on the
new group, then I'll post pics of my mangled fingers and crooked machine on
the new group.
Myc has given his opinion on the other group and I tend to think we'll get
more accomplished ourselves. This group has several people that are
actively interested in fabricating a station. I just bought 6 new bearings
on my way home (ack, $9CAD each, oh well).
I'm not strong on the group-machine idea. Geography is a major problem with
a planet-wide group. I'm part of the Seattle Robotics Group, but I doubt
I'll ever be able to join them in any activity. That doesn't stop me from
picking up valuable information here and there though.
All I'm looking for is a group that'll share ideas, schematics, plans,
software (PC and PIC based), anything, relating with a CNC drilling station.
I say CNC because I personally will use the drilling file generated by QCAD.
I can only assume everyone else will do the same thing. If not, they can
always inform us on alternatives (like that cardinal-point-system thing).

There are already 2 good groups for it,
this one and cnc_pcb, why do you need another one?
I don't see why the same people must go to another group only to discuss
the same topics.
PCB drilling is on topic here. Steve doesn't mention it on the page but he
has said so in the past.
It is also very much on topic on cnc_pcb.
you have the people on these groups already that know stuff (been there
done that like knowing).
One can make a case for the separate CNC group, but for another one i
dunno. Then we end up with toner transfer group and photosensitive group
and ...
I'd urge to keep things together. We really don't need a new group for
each new thread.

Oh, and upload these files please!
