I CNC'd a Micro mill so that I can use it for other stuff also.

However, it is a little slow when drilling pcb's, (around 5 seconds
per hole) so I have the makings of a cnc drill machine just for pcbs,
just haven't got round to assembling it into a finished machine yet.. 
The new machine uses bushes on ground round guides for the ways and a
pneumatic 'Z'axis...  just need time to finish it..

I'm too busy with injection moulding, vacuum forming and aluminium
casting...  (too many hobbies !)
