    Since I changed the pc and upgraded the electronics I've been able to ramp up to 9m/min now with the 2nm motors, I did try 12m/min but just stall protect immediately, I can cut 1mm depth in oak at this speed so I wonder if it's worth upgrading to 3nm motors given the rigidity of my machine. Glad I went with 20mm thick plates now nice one Zeeflyboy for the advice ;)

    Loving my Unicomp model M keyboard it's super lovely to type on but no good for gaming (2 key rollover), bought a 1993 model M as well and although some people say you can tell the difference between the new unicomp and the original model M's they feel almost identical to me. The 1993 model has a slight ring when typing because IBM used plastic rivets which some have perished it types fine so most of the rivets must still be intact but I'll strip it and bolt mod it with metal bolts and better than new.

    What amazes me is a 25 year old keyboard types the same as an 18 month old one.

    Which one is 25 years old?
