this is true, but i figure it this way. a properly written set of code, shouldnt cause crashes, and secondly you should have an estop button handy thats tied into your control software.
not to mention that this mill is acting as a sort of test bed for the router i'm building.. and it will be big, well, bigger than the mill anyway... so with what i've learned with this about speeds, and whatnot, when i get back to my router, i'll have that much more figured out. I'm also planning to use the same computer, and drivers, to run both my mill and the table router, at different times ofcourse, but i dont see the need to duplicate thoes components right now, i'll never need to use them both at the same time.
