gotta be able to use a couple sections from the gantry to move
something as light as a PC board.....
My T-tech routing/drilling machine uses a DC motor for the spindle
and a solenoid to drill. not much more travel than a plotter pen up
and down....
and the 7550 has a carosel... maybe it could hold a half dozen drill
bits.... a small DC motor with a drill bit as the tool holder. no
need to change the bit, change the whole motor....
I think it's too late and I'm getting too far afield.
