Hi Andrew,like l said read thro your adventure with your beast of a machine.Took a while to read from start to finish but it was like reading a good book couldnt stop once l started.I intend to read right thro again to digest things a bit more second time around.Wonder if the guy who you bought it off sacked anyone who advised him to get rid of your machine as it would never work again,or be cheaper to buy another one.It might just have wanted a new home and likes it better where it is now and its looked after hopefully you havnt retired it,Did you master the programing (Ithink you would have)Have you made any complex parts for anyone on here,if so any videos to watch.I have to say when you closed the door to start the machine it sounded great nice and smooth,l could see that lovely machine spitting the parts off with awesome accuracey.They should have an award voted on by members for their achievents in a given year and you would have got my vote,no offence to anyone else as theres a lot of really nice completed projects on here,but for sheer size and the lack of information you initially had on the machine-wow you would never get me off that thing.

Something, say 2 years earlier, with slightly different vintage of electronics and programming. Now that would would be something a guy could really sink his teeth into, a rare machine, and think of that feeling you get when the dead screen lights up and the spindle starts to move for the first time......is there anything better?
You're getting sleepy, sleepy, .......you know you want to sell this one Andrew....it works too well, where's the fun in that?.........you want to start a new thread here on Madmodder and a new project...........sleepy sleepy........ :med:
