I have place the file 3axis.zip on the Circuit Cookbook Site at
ftp.ee.ualberta.ca.  It should be in /pub/cookbook/unsorted in a few days.
If you can't wait, send e-mail and I can send you a uuencoded file, TIME
PERMITTING.

The zipfile contains Postscript files for a PCB, overlay, and schematic.
There also text files called read.me, how.to, and parts.lst, whose names
indicate content.

As usual, I am offering parts kits.  Also as usual, I am offering a
discount to Internet folks.  Until 1/1/95, I will sell kits to net types
for $58.  Regular price is $79.  Assembled and tested controllers are $129
with no discounts.  I tried to use easily gotten parts as possible.  Have
fun.

This controller is optimized for use with shareware and homebrew CNC
software that uses the PC parallel port for control.  The inputs are TTL
compatible, so it can easily be controlled by micro circuits also.
