It's been working quite well recently. I've had some frustrations with the T-nuts I'm using for clamping but have that issue (mostly) sorted after having to dissasemble the baseboard twice.

The real clincher has been the old LinuxCNC PC which has suddenly shut itself down a couple of times and did this yesterday in the middle of a long trochoidal cut of some clock gears. After some cleaning and reassembly the PC has now stayed on all night but it's not really reliable so I've bitten the bullet and ordered an AXBB-E and a software licence for UCCNC. Balazs has confirmed they have one in stock so it should be here quite soon. Funny thing is that after moving 5000Km from the remote wilds of Western Australia to 5 minutes outside the third largest city in Tasmania DHL still class this as a 'remote' location so they're going to sting me 48EU for delivery.

Any useful words of wisdom regarding the installation of the new card will be welcome, especially any tips from those who have already switched from LinuxCNC to UCCNC.
