Re: Understanding cnc lathe programming?

Jeff,

It may depend upon what you are building. I use mach3 on my lathe
quite a bit.

The lazy cam is fairly new for being able to do anything for the lathe
on it. Not sure if all the bugs are worked out on it yet.

I mainly use the wizards in Mach3, (a conversational type program) and
I have build several wizards to make other things not included in the
mach package.

Somethings I use several wizards to make the complete part and then
combine the Gcode into one package to do the complete part at one shot.

What are you making?
