    (Texas) East Dallas/Rockwall Area mentor needed

    Hello Everyone! I am looking for a mentor, or perhaps just a few friends who already have homemade CNC setups that I can bounce ideas off of. Any experience will do.

    Also, I know it's probably out of scope for this forum, but I also wouldn't mind some friends who are into building robotics. PM me if interested!

    A field trip might be cool to San Antonio, but I generally can't get out of the city much, so I am kind of limited to 1.5 hours away or so :-(

    I do appreciate the response, and will keep that in mind!

    Nginuity,

    I'm in Duncanville and am finishing up a full-size knee mill conversion. Pics here: www.fleetradioproducts.com/mill

    Is there any hobby CNC club in the Dallas area that you know of?

    FYI...

    We started a group in the Dallas metro-area. We have only had our first get together but we all need to start somewhere. Check out:
