New business

Issue: Frank would like to get DMS's spectra mill and lathe working, but we will need more parts. (by Paul Brown)

1. Three double shaft NEMA 23 motors to get the spectra-mill working: http://www.kelinginc.net/KL23H276-28-4B.pdf ($39 each + shipping)
2. Two NEMA 23's will replace Frank's personal motors on the spectra lathe: http://www.circuitspecialists.com/nema_23_stepping_motor_57bygh310.html (~$24 each + shipping)
