Not hardly, a Grizzly G0704 milling machine I've converted to be run by
linuxcnc. All the driving screws have been replaced by much more
efficient and accurate ball screws, with big stepper motors to turn
them. Solid carbide cutting tools, driven by g-code I write.
I don't know if the server passes images, but I'm making 3 more copies of
the blanket chest picture attached, one for each of my surviving
children, now down to 4 boys. Solid Mahogany with Gabon Ebony trim bits,
and an aromatic eastern red cedar lining. Those "Green & Green" joints
were all carved by an even smaller machine I built several years ago,
but that used every millimeter of travel the smaller machine had. This
machine is 3x heavier, with about a 3x larger working envelope. I've
been since the last of May this year getting it and the driver
electronics built.

The local
network problem turned out to be one of my cnc machines,
crashed & wouldn't even post, until I played with rocking the Dimms
around. Been fine since. I spent the afternoon carving Mahogany
with it.
Carving with what a dimm chip?
