Dedicated machine for collet slotting?

I'm looking at getting a tabletop 3 axis trammel CNC, which I think will be cheaper and more useful for me than a knee mill, but I have a project which would require a lot of collet slotting in delrin, and this machine seems not the best choice. I feel like I've seen a dedicated machine, but don't remember where. Also, I'm wondering if some sort of sharpening machine could be adapted. Thanks! Burke or Nichols hand feed mill? These have a lever with rack & pinion instead of a hand crank and lead screw for the longitudinal feed. http://www.thekilmerplace.com/mill%20done%20001.JPG http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb...t-head-210534/ -- Ned Simmons |
