I have what's called a "Techno Autocad replicator" It basically is a big dumb happy x,y,z plotter that would have a milling head instead of a pen. In my case, I have a 25 watt CO2 laser mounted on the z axis. I can plot direct from Acad to the mill, and the laser zips it out in plastic, wood, light metal etc. If this is of any interest let me know and I'll give you more detail.. Doug Dulmage
