Hi Jeff,

Glad to hear you are sorting it out, nice setup!

Cheers, Dave.

I was scouring our local surplus store and came upon something I couldn't leave without! This stainless steel 4u server case must have cost some business serious money a few years ago. I had been looking for a 2u case but I'm stingy. This one set me back a whopping $15! Now I need to set up the shelf for it.

Hi Jeff,

That's not being stingy, it's called being frugal.

A worthwhile skill that has been lost.

Cheers, Frugal Dave.

OEM Windows XP.... that would be more than a few years ago...... probably lucky to get USB at all!

Should make a great...... um..... boat anchor....

didnt want the PC just the case. Buuuuuut......Mach3 likes the older OS better so I could have kept it. It also requires a parallel port. The machine inside is modern AMD quad core with Win7 and a pci parallel port. Everything turned off and no internet access.

Did a little woodworking today. Frees up a little space for storage

Nice and tidy looking but look to the right?

Yeah Yeah, with my impending move I have been trying to get things back into one piece.... And that's not good! Too many cars not enough shelves

Too many cars not enough shelves

Ain't that the truth......

Wrong! Never too many cars!

Got a few more components, namely a killer little power supply and a Gecko stepper controller. Now it's time to fit it all in one box

One step forward and one step back! Removed the bulky PC and went to an all in one dell. Sitting on an adjustable arm that is bolted to the 3/4" MDF back. I have wanted to build a bit of a shield for a while to control dust anyway so this accomplished a couple goals. I've freed up some room and hopefully will start building the new cnc machine soon- I can't believe it's taken this long

Wow, sure looks like a post I seen on facebook a couple hours ago

Looking good. I see you have boxer proofed the shop by locating stuff higher so he can't get to it as easily . They sure love chewing on the rubber tires...mine does anyway
