Not been on the forum for quite a while now, too many projects and not enough time. Building/repairing/renovating a few old boats (still only managed to get one on the water), and converting a minibus into a camper van alongside other things seem to have left me little time to post. I have an old SCM120 3ph commercial router, but it only has about 900mm travel in the cross axis and I need 1200mm, so the SCM is on the BAY and I have purchased (not yet collected) a used Chinese 8x4 rack and pinion (X&Y) machine with a SYNTEC EZ4 controller. I will post other details in the relevant sections. Geoff.

Welcome back Geoffrey. Looking forward to how that new machine works out.

Welcome back Geoffrey. Looking forward to how that new machine works out.

Thanks. I do not know the age of the "new" machine, but it looks to be in quite good condition. It is servo motor driven and has a 9kw HSD 24K ATC spindle, an eight station tool changer, a 6 zone vac bed with a powerful vac pump and a Syntec controller that appears to have about 2.5gig storage capacity. I do not yet have a post for alphacam, but am really looking forward to getting it back here to have a play. Geoff.
