Ecm?

I know its not listed on this forum, but it seems like the most appropriate section of cnczone.

Anyway; does anyone have expierience either using or building ECM mills? (electro-chemical machining) To me it seems to have some nice benefits, and would require less shock resistant hardware, but I can't find anything where someone has even attempted amature use/contruction!

I did find some basic information on how it works, and the site is quite complete, but I've found nothing on amature work with ECM.

For those of you that don't know, ECM is best suited for drilling riddiculusly long, narrow holes, surfacing, and extremely accurate production.

Site I found:
http://electrochem.cwru.edu/ed/encyc...-machining.htm

I can add more summary information if people want it. Also, I have no specific purpose; not even blowing cash :wee:, I'm just facinated with trying to build an ECM device, partly because they're so rare.
