A printed copy of the manual?

Post by RGSparber »

I would like to have a nicely bound printed copy of the CNC Mill manual. The local copy store said they would not touch it because it is copywritten. If I had a release from the author, they would copy it. However, they want 20 cents per side so we are talking $71 plus tax. That kills the deal.

An electronic copy is fine in my den but a hard copy sure is handy in my greasy shop.

What are other people doing?

Confidence is the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are where they should be.

I would print it myself. Inkjet printers typically run 5-10 cents per page for black and white.
