thankyou for all your comments....

Being a small company we very little knowledge in cnc (but an eagerness to learn)

we have a cnc standing idol awaiting a program to get it up and running

The guy who commissioned the machine said it was a good purchase and he sees no faults with it!

He recommended the spai genio software but unfortunately we cannot afford that yet..

but if we can get another program to get us going would be great...
