    I use a pillar drill to drill the PCBs by hand at the moment, i haven't managed to find a PCB drilling machine or CADCAM machine yet. Sorry.

    ahh - no worries same boat as me then - with a cross drill vice?

    When I was considering making my own I considered the Millinstruments kit one?? would do PCBs in a pseudo CNC/drilling machine way?

    now ya got me wondering If I could fit a decent drill in it and use it as a milling machine - ie my Rotozip :)

    And the price has dropped a lot :) mmmm tempted!!

    Dunno why but reverse engineering is a word I like :)
