[bubbax1]

Hey Guys,

Does anybody make a decent stepper motor to use with the g210
that is suitable for bridgeport series 1 cnc machine?

I would like to have 100 ipm rapids.

Thanks,
Joe

Thanks Roy,

Did you wire those up in serial or parallel?

How do you like Mach3?
Was it easy to setup?
Any downside to it?

I thought about switching to Mach3. It would be nice not to have to buy a
$1500.00 or more controller card. But I have been using the
same software for 11 years. And until I know that Mach3 is rock stable
I am a little scared of switching.

Thanks,
Joe

SERIES

I'm happy with Mach3. I have it on a bridgeport series 1 was a boss 4 and a lathe I retrofitted both work well. I would say easy to setup.

the software is developing nicely free updates.
