woooo my rails and bearings arrived today from Gary at zapp automation.

the system4 i've stuck in a metal medicine cupboard i found in a skip and is all running nicely

the machine i'm planning is going to have 2 motors on the X so i've also bought 2 driver25 boards and a ext module to run them so as to leave the C axis free for future expansion to a four axis machine

I was going to take up on the option of joining X and C and running the fourth axis from a stand alone board as suggested by Irving but then i got drunk and completly forgot:whistling:
oh well, either way's good
