Lap Top Computer as CNC Controller

Donald Rothfuss
 

I'm lurking trying to learn about homemade DROs and CNC to see if I want to
modify my Millrite. Would a Lap Top Pentium be a suitable machine for this
application? I have a very small shop and a lap top would sure solve the
space problem.

Lap tops have funny grounding. If you use the parallel port you may run into
problems. usually a 486-66 is plenty computer for most home cnc programs.
