Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] CPNC

I don't want to start any flames but do you se your CPNC able to do
everything that can be done with G code? If not then your example of someone
learning on an AcuRite is like the example of learning on a simple machine
and being forever limited instead of taking the effort to learn to do it
right.
