I use mach3 with my 30 X 30 Longmill. So far I have had no problem.
I am using RnR controller, but had to do extensive research initially for the settings.
I am not new to mach3, but have been using it for about 8 years, which is the reason I went this route . The RnR controller is USB and 4-axis (does not use parallel port and are the ones I am using . There are other USB controller cards available. Some less spendy and some more, some 3-axis and some more.
how do i download mach3 software
