Hi,
I know I shouldn't laugh but I find that two people, both intelligent, appear to have to defend their view to this degree. You both have a valid point.

For those of you who missed the little CNC discussion forum and
presentations, I was not pushing Vector at all (it was in the title, but not
the words). I merely showed when it is best to use CNC as opposed to manual
machining. Most of my discussion was about the $100,000 CNC lathe I watched
wreck itself & a statement to be safe when using CNC machines.
