Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Physically Handicaped !!! HELP !!!!

Hi Daniel:

Mach3 will accept up to 2 handwheels at the moment, use MPG's or
simple encoders. (I use encoders myself, cheap and easy..). You may need a
second printer port
to handle all the pins, but the MPG movement is working pretty good.
