Is it possible to buy a small-scale (desktop) 4-axis milling machine
that has an NC interface (preferably RS-232)?  The XY travel requirement
is about 10x10 cm^2, and the Z axis should travel at least 3cm.  The
precision does not have to be very high;  .01 inch would be acceptable.
I'll post any leads that I get to this group.
