Apologies for not being able to thank you via the button on the forum, I don't seem to get the option on my mobile. I've been messing longer than that trying to get the machine to run and the looking for software.
I could use engravelab I know that has a post processor that will operate the machine but that's £1100 (600 in US but won't export to Uk)
I've looked at changing the electrics I think this will be around £600 plus mach3. I know this will be the only long term option as the spares are no longer available and their all integrated.
Short term I think I can muddle through with the old system and hopefully earn a little cash for the upgrade. I know it will move via hpgl 2d via a hp driver.
Worst case I can just produce the tool paths in cut2d and export them to my old cam to add the depth speeds etc.
If I get in tonight early enough I'll have a play with some dnc software and an edited post processor file from cut 2d.
Tks,Paul
