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.
