Default "THE BEAST" is alive

Most all of my posts over the last year have been toward working on the new
shop and my old CNC machines installed there. I've been working 40 hours a
week on THE BEAST lately. This old girl is a Mazak M4 22" by 60" CNC lathe
with a four station front turret and 6 station back turret. She's got a
brand spankin' new control.

There's still a number of minor bugs to work out, but she's ready to make
chips. I'm wiring in another Estop palm button today and putting the guards
back on. Chips tomorrow!

Thanks for all the help.

Karl
