Frank...
In a nutshell, I had a wild urge to mass-produce solar heating panels
and high-end woodworking benches - and decided that the 'Bot offered a
number of advantages:
[1] CAD/CAM/CNC allow extremely rapid prototyping.
[2] I could achieve consistantly higher quality than with other
methods.
[3] Labor costs are minimized.
[4] I could capitalize on math/software/control system experience.
[5] CNC production capacity is wonderfully scalable.
