Hi All
I have just purchased a CNC mill and have started getting my head around this machine and softwear Can anyone help and explain in simple English the procedure for writing text in lazycam and then sending it to mach3

If this machine had an injector pump and injectors and a valve setting all would be fine  Grin Huh

The manual for LC also covers text and can be found in Members Docs.
There is also a Wizard that comes with Mach that you can use for text.
You can also use text from a saved dxf file and import that file into LC and post code to Mach.
