I had looked at that one previously, but not sure about using it with
the low res encoder on the lathes. That and the 110V US kit is not
helpful in the UK ;) Also adding 5th axis is a problem ... just shipped
a 5 channel USBCNC system so ideally need more than 4 channels.

Looks like there are a couple of non Mach3 options to use with the
Pokeys boards which I'm looking at currently.
