Hi All,

This is my first post on the forum so please accept my apologies if this question has been asked before. I have built my own CNC plasma cutting table and have had great results with it using a cheap controller from China. I have been thinking of using Mach 3 for some time though as the controller for my machine as it seems to be more flexible and I can customise it, so I have decided to take up the challenge and learn something new

I would like to use Ethernet Smooth Stepper moving forward with BoB's, but before I commit, does anyone out there use their ESS with a torch height controller (THC) and if so, which THC are they using and to what success.

Also - how have you integrated your THC with your ESS, BoB's, Mach 3 etc...?

I've included a few picks of my machine build - hope the uploads work!

I appreciate any replies.

Thanks,
Andy
