Drilling radial holes and CNC
I stumbled across this example of how you can drill radial holes without the need for a rotary table, as far as I can tell it’s just a case of mathematics and good measurements although machining it on a mill with an accurate x-y table must have helped.
Bob’s blog contains a good mixture of machining and robotic sumo wrestling. Bob also has a good comparison of the Windows and Linux versions of popular CNC software.
