nice size machine!
tell us more about what you did? what kind of motors and drives are being used? what make model is the machine tool? why did you upgrade to Acorn?
what kind of work do you have planned for the machine?
and please post a fresh report.zip so we can see your machine configuration settings.
thanks for posting the video, looking forward to the next one of it making chips!
