    Really New!

    Hi Folks,

    I've been doing CNC plasma table stuff for about 3 years now, and have now decided to build a CNC milling table. I have the plans and have started to purchase what I need, that's the easy part.

    I really like to hear some suggestions on software and cutting programs. Currently the plasma table uses FlashCuts, but it's only a two axis system.

    Regards,


    Glen

    Welcome to your new odsession Glen.

    Machine control software: best is Mach3 at $160.00

    Vcarve Pro from Vectric approx $599.00 is the best low priced for 2d machining, Vcarving, sign making etc. You cannot go wrong with any of their software

    Actually, Mach3 is $175 now. But still highly recommended.
