Hey. I posted this in Indexer area but figured it might get missed by some.
I found this on ebay and wondered if it could be made to work with my PRS standard machine.

Glen,
It's hard to get a good feel for it's size based on the picture and i don't do metric:eek:
I would suggest you go to the indexer section here and go back to the very beginning pages and go thru the articles. When it first started several guys posted pictures and info on their setups from full blown shopbot ones to homemade put together ones that cost around $200.00. I think you can buy the parts you need and make a whole setup for less then the cost of your example.:D
