08:14 PM rue_mohr: :) wonder what they charge for the registration tape
08:16 PM rue_mohr: if they really want to sell it', they would do something like thingiverse for people to upload designs

08:21 PM rue_mohr: your screwed for scale
08:21 PM rue_mohr: and you have no z control
08:21 PM Tom_L: i've not used that format that i can remember
08:21 PM rue_mohr: its an image format
08:22 PM rue_mohr: scalable vector graphic
08:22 PM Tom_L: it only needs x and y
08:22 PM rue_mohr: huh
08:22 PM rue_mohr: all the projects dont handle z
08:22 PM zhanx: well really are they doing z?
08:22 PM rue_mohr: so you cant cut out a hemisphere pocket
08:23 PM zhanx: its a router you manually set it
08:23 PM rue_mohr: burn
08:23 PM rue_mohr: no, watch video, it controls the z too
08:23 PM rue_mohr: its got ~1" on x and y, and z
08:23 PM Tom_L: huh
08:23 PM zhanx: take your word on it, watching football
