Having to install additional drivers and patches with each new release of PP seems too much of a pain. I'd love for Tormach to support a better pendant but the Shuttle remains the only one supported. Tiring of digging aluminum chips out of my shuttle I decided that the easy solution was to make the Shuttle handheld and chip resistant. See the attached pictures for the result. It is actually pretty convenient and has had no chip issues for the last few years although it is not coolant proof.
