Yes I have been a member of both groups for a while but had
to put the idea of cutting a board with a CNC until I could
build one. I have eched a few boards but I have allways drilled them
by hand. Now I would like to use my CNC, but I still can't get the
pcbgcode working yet.
I found no file with a "fix", what file would it be in?
I do have the set-up working but when I try to open the drilling
files in Mach3 I get a error code on line one.
Thanks.
