I am building a stepper controled Key Making machine. Like the ones you see at the hard ware store. I need to control 2 axis with a hand held jog unit and I need the relitive position displayed on the computer screen.

Is the a simple peice of software that will do that?

Also can you recommend a DIY stepper motor drive board that I may use for this.

Thanks

wow. that really looks pretty cool. But is a bit pricey. I was looking for a cheap way to jog 2 stepper moters conected to my key machine. One in the y dir and the other in the x. I just need soem sort of feed back as to the reletive measurments.


Thanks for the link.
