basically a 4axis is like having a tire balancer on top of our cnc table... basically lets you spin material on a vertical plane allowing to do groves where your serpentine belt would ride on....

just looking for a ball park figure right now on the adapters, as these stock brake on my 240z dont look to be up to the challenge of even a lap on the track.
