    its this now

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcRMUh4GWWU

    this was in my shed in the UK all here now setup in my garage..

    its now a 4 axis complete working machine..BUT the quest for more dimentions and challenges are set..
    it will be a 5 axis in about 2 weeks or so...
    I found a company in china that make the 4th and 5th ready to go...
    I have all the components to make them but lack the time ..so just spend the 500 bucks required and be done...now to show ya the part...





    so just wait for this and start learning 5 axis stuff whoohoo!!

    Boys and their toys hey. Were all jealous.

    I guess this all leads to your next step of making your own necks. Can't wait to see all this unfold. Top stuff.
