I've been programming newer and larger cnc machines for several years. I want my own machine and have an opportunity to buy a slightly used Bridgeport R2C3 with Heidenhein 145 Control.

1. It can't read G-code right??? Special event style programming?

2. Can it cut a helix? Thread mill etc..?

3. If the machine is in good shape is it worth retroing to a newer control?

Thanks!
