I'm sort of wondering if it is even worth putting the coolant control into Mach3. I have a power strip with the coolant pump plugged into it and I just reach over and turn it on when I want the pump on. Turn it off when I don't need any more coolant.
But, OTOH, I want to take advantage of the full capacity of Mach3 and my setup and adding the coolant controls in would just be a step in the right direction. I eventually want to add a spindle control and a computer controlled rotary table.
Between the cnc4pc site and the cartertools site, is there any advantages one over the other?
