It is full 5 axes. UVXYZ. I was thinkin. Take all the wire guide assy. off. Add abracket to mount a router head for all xyz moves then rerun the programs with the spindle turned 90 deg. . This machine will run the XYZ EZ. But do yall think the UV would take it to the 3rd? The machine is very high tollerence. It will hold .00002". So Im thinkin this thing will sculpt? Anyone? Thanks Jim | ||

So you know. The place for the UV axes is to tilt the the wire in the Z axes. Which creates angles to the XY. holding .00002". Im gonna figure something out. Or junk it! Have fun Jim | ||

to explain. This machine will cut a circle at the top while cuttting a square in the bottom of the same part that is 10" thick. It is fully 5 axes. I think it will work. .....Ok you brains. I think it is all there except the Z negitive cuts. Ok so shoot it down? I see chips.. lol Jim Have fun, | ||

Hurry and get ten posts in so that you can post some photographs and an explanation of just what the machine was designed for, 0.00002" is a VERY close tolerance, probably closer than required for printed circuit board design.
