Never going to get an answer to the question about why one takes a design in electronic form, prints it, and manually digitises it in order to get to an electronic design. Still mildly baffled! Strikes me as being a bit like putting a pen in the router spindle, using it to draw the profile required, and then cutting it with a fret saw.

Funnily enough, I thought the same when I watched one of his videos.
I can see a rather limited market for digitising old drawings, but I'd rather spend the money on a Wacom Cintiq tablet and have plenty change, rather than a large format basic tablet.

If anybody wants to scan something using a camera on the machine with Mach3 then give this a try. It's old and unsupported but I've used it before to good effect.
