    I thought you had longer to wait Andrew..... Glad to hear you have your machine on the way - we need to see some projects!
    Well not quite ready to knock out an inlaid end grain chopping board! But got some time this weekend to try stuff out. Making simple small boxes to play about with feeds and speeds, climb vs conventional and tolerances on the lid fitting. Once sorted they take only 1.5min to knock out......the external clean up takes longer! Need a fixture so the machine can do that too I guess.
