It's certainly more definitive. I don't find the rotary anywhere near as convenient.....but I also have my shuttle sitting on a tool box just to the right of where I stand in front of the mill. If I had to use both hands with the shuttle, I'm sure I'd be using the vista more. Or...if the vista were mounted more securely.....or maybe at a different angle.
I've seen a lot of people have the "double tap" issue with the shuttle. I'm pretty convinced at this point that it's a windows/mach issue and it will stay gone if I get switched over to pathpilot.
Thanks guys!!
Set everything up to push the start button......then went up and said good morning to my wife.....nodded off in my chair for an hour or so.......it's still working right now.
