For the estop just change the active state and it wont be a problem. But best to get a real estop on your machine for safety reasons.

I cant get rid of the "external estop requested"  Where do I change the active state. Ive tried everything & it just comes back.

General Mach Discussion / Post processor

« on: July 20, 2007, 01:07:25 PM »

I'm using BobCad & Mach3 as the post processor. When I choose Mach3 it has no place to describe the tool I want to use, only a choice of tool 1 to tool 8. Is there a place in Mach3 to define the diameter of these tools?

I am looking for a CNC machine now. I have a friend that has a Laser & he just scans a line art of what he wants to cut. Like your Dinosaur ( which are pretty cool ) . Can Artsoft do this? I have PhotoShop & the line art for a large puzzel.
