    am just ordering a smoothstepper and micro switches. its going to get a rewire before i actually use it properly. i will also set it up correctly in mach with limits, so it doesnt break its self.

    such a shame, micro switches and a bit of cable is about £20.

    Don't waste your money on a smooth stepper, do yourself a favor and move to UCCNC. Blows mach3 and 4 away.

    Can lead a horse to water but can't make it drink.! . . . . . I have several smooth steppers in a draw somewhere USB and Ethernet which I've fit and removed because of issues and bugs and removed several from other machines because they gave nothing but trouble. So yes it was certainly tried but sadly not tested enough.!

    I was a big Mach3 fanboy for the best part of 20yrs, so it's sad and hard to say but Mach3 is done and finished, Mach4 is so bad they made a film about it called BUGs Life.! . . . . UCCNC blows them both away and is rock-solid stable.

    you can lead a horse to water...

    thats your opinion only!

    i have a ESS in my denford triac, its been in there for about 8 years. ive never had an issue with it, it works perfectly as it should and i use the machine almost daily.
    just sold but also had a ESS in my denford microrouter for 4 years, again never had a single issues. works perfectly.

    so you dont need to lead anyone to water, ive tried, tested and love the ESS.

    but thanks for giving your opinion.

    That's all that matters really.!!
    But just to make the point I'm not just giving my opinion, I'm giving my experience of using many ESS/Mach3 setups and helping many people using them on Routers who have had many issues or troubles with this combo.
    UCCNC without a shadow of a doubt blows the socks off Mach3, the fact many long-time and very experienced mach3 users have migrated from mach3 to UCCNC is a testament to this.
