I guess you could say my brother and I decided to learn Rocket Science over the Internet.
My brother came across a CNC machine with optical controllers, that didn’t work, so he got steeper motors and a BOB ( now to the parallel port it was my doing, had always heard parallel ports were faster) got them mounted to CNC table we tried Mach3 and got the motors to work and everything worked great, now we heard Mach3 was old news and Mach4 was the way to go, so he licensed Mach4.
He does have a XP computer running 32 bits.
If we ever figure just where we are now and get the rest worked out in Mach4, then the next headache is going to be mounting the plasma torch, Yes the old CNC machine has a plasma machine.
Where is the plasma set located in Mach4, I’m hearing there is no plasma set in Mach4.
Thanks for all the help you have provided for us Internet Rocket Scientists.
