However I do have a bit of programming documentation, and also some programs written back in 1993 by Dorman Diesels to make widgets for their engines, so I have a starting point!

VERY VERY JEALOUS!

I can't wait to see this machine make some swarf, I have a feeling it's going to be tremendous (either that, or the biggest tool-crash in madmodder history....)

Re video - why not buy a cheap 2nd hand GoPro (or even a proper 250 quid new one), IIRC there are various kits, some of which will include a suction mount & a waterproof case; ideal for mounting inside the the machine to get those full HD swarfy shots.

I have to say - I am in awe of your skills & patience; I have a feeling I would have lost interest long ago & found some other stir-crazy project to get involved with.
