Has Anyone ever used one of these before?

Is it me but it appears to be on the pricey side as I assume you will need drivers for the servos.
The price will be in the £300 bracket in UK.
Has lots of connectors so should make fitting easy.
Not much help I know but if you are going down the VHF spindle route then it will be small beer in the scheme of things.

Just a thought but if you need lots of inputs/outputs then why not put 2 bob's in like this one - http://www.diycnc.co.uk/html/pcpps.html

You will have to put a second parallel port card in your pc anyway to drive the IO6 so it will end up working very similar. The two bob's will be on separate parallel ports so you can set the inputs and outputs up separately in mach3. Never tried it though!

Another option is to use just 1 bob for the main inputs/outputs and also a standard parallel port connector which you can solder the wires straight to the back for any additional input outputs you need, never had the need to do this either but I know a man that has!

Oh, you might need one of these to make driving your spindle a little easier... - http://www.diycnc.co.uk/html/spindle_2.html
