can give you better insite into motor sizing and such. As for the
control software: If you will use a PC based system virtually all of
them support standard g-code. Your choices run from $20 shareware to
some new controller/CAM versions for $350. If you are looking to do
3D milling then the cost of poker goes up but still far below what
the commercial systems used to cost even a year ago.<<<<<



Thanks, That answers my PC question. 'preciate it! I quess you guys
are too far along to help a newbe with this elementary stuff! I've
completed the X & Y ball screw conversionsand drives - working on Z
drive at present. I'll refresh my memory so my questions aren't so
elementary.

Thanks again for answering my question!
