General Mach Discussion / Re: Uses for Mach3

Onecnc, masterCam and others... Are called CAM programs. They are for making the "Gcode" that will run your machine. This type of a program is not needed at first if you run wizards. But you will not be able to make the cool 3d and odd shapes with the wizards (That is a Cam job). Is that any help?

Well Sid I know it will not handle text at this point...
If you brake the text into lines and arcs it will work!
it is on the list to add in text support

In the NFS Wizards you would have to do the holes one at a time but you could do 200 holes if you like... it would just add to the program...
