I've been building an automatic toolchanger for my Easimill 3. It changed it's first tool yesterday under human control, I still need to write a macro so that it can be done by the computer. Here's a video if anyone's interested.

My general blog is here, which is mostly about the Easimill.

Great work 
Bet that beer went down well!

Indeed it did 
I've turned my attention to the pendant, I relocated the switches since the ATC was blocking them. The new panel is made of .080 aluminum (same as the old one), but is powder-coated rather than having a decal on it. I was just about to start tracing the Denford logo so I could have one cut from vinyl, when it occurred to me that maybe I could get a couple of Denford stickers from the factory. I like all of my stuff to look oem, and that would really jazz it up. Got anything like that?

It's been a few weeks and no stickers (or even a reply) from Denford UK, or my local Denford rep in AZ, USA. Oh well, if I can't get factory stickers, I guess I'll just have to reproduce the 1980's vintage logo myself. I scanned the mill's original panel on my flatbed scanner, then brought it into AutoCAD LT for tracing. I had a few cut out of vinyl and applied one to the pendant on the Easimill. I stuck one on my Orac too for good measure. They came out really nice.

Corey,
Your ATC for your mill looks great. Would you share the macro?
