Leaving MachCNC behind me.

 

Hi all.
?
Firstly, thanks to all those whose advice helped me all those years ago setting up my first CNC machine.
?
Two disasters impacted my early use- my laptop with a parallel port got stolen and the insurance wouldn't replace it with a similar item.
?
I solved this by building a desktop using a core board that included parallel. Unfortunately, a mouse plague meant that the innards of this got eaten and wrecked.
?
When researching a replacement, I found that for my needs at least it was cheaper and easier to use Open-Source, USB oriented software now.
?
I had dismantled my original CNC and rebuilt it with one using 3D printed parts. This one is bigger and more accurate.
?
Anyway, thanks again to the community and good times with your CNC-ing!
?
Cheers,
?
Neville
