You have to have the force feed back hooked up to current sensors, that way
you could really jam the tool into the work and feel it hit :-)

Hi Robin,
Force feedback makes no difference. Now if we could find some way
of
monitoring the motor load and feeding it back to the computer we
could
make use of force feeback :-)

WOW! great idea! I have DC tachs on my servos that are just hooked
up to panel meters calibrated in IPM. While they are impressive to
visitors, they don't do much for me any more, but with force
feedback, my handheld controller could vibrate the faster my machine
went! One down side is that if I sat the controller down to use the
computer keyboard it would vibrate off the table.
Gotta love this hobby!!
