Default Why Good Drawings Are Important - Long Boring Story

I take it JBot is a CNC router/drill? Yup. The time will come for that,
when folks start wondering why electronics innovation should stop
outside the shop doors. I can see a reasonably accurate, limited
envelope router/drill replacing all the dovetail and mortising jigs on
the market.


You've probably already seen it at the link below. Step size is 1/4800"
(approx 0.0002083") in all three axes - reasonably accurate for most
woodworking. Runs industry standard g-code.

It's an "adequate" joinery machine, and is still as accurate as the day
it was finished.
