I have not loaded any G Code into Mach3 as of yet. I`m still playing with a unfinished machine I have not made the table "Y" axis or "X" depending on your view, in fact I`m still 2 motors short, my last 2 Gecko 203v`s only got here on Sat, I have not even had time to connect them in yet

Pass the bottle of Scotch as I own a copy and the videos leave my brain in a puddle. BobCAD-CAM is very easy to understand and fun in comparison. I am very serious let me know and sometime we can get together and go this stuff with either your machine or mine acting as the scapegoat to make sure we are getting it right. Mach 3 is great stuff just very heady.
