    Hi Crazy L

    I also read your post but I have only heard about the Syil and Denford machines but not used them myself.

    Mach3 software is a machine control program to read Gcode files (created by a CAM program) and turn them into machine movement. In basic form it sends the signals out of the parallel port to a Break Out Board (BOB), which in turn controls stepper motor drivers, which then turn the stepper motors, which turn the leadscrews and move the spindle (or workpiece).

    I think most people on here have built their own from scratch, with the odd conversion, which is also why you didn't get a response.


    Also, the new member, JazzCNC, should introduce himself . . .
