Mach3 and LazyCAM
Many viewers write me and ask which software package I would recommend. I can tell you that this is a totally non-biased answer because I was a die-hard EMC2 user until I started to play with Mach3. Don't get me wrong, I still like EMC2, but Mach3 saves me so much time, especially with LazyCAM.
$159.00 Mach3Pro | $75.00 LazyCAMPro | |

If you are famillar with g-code and converting, then you can appreciate the time savings that LazyCAM offers. With free converters, there is no rhyme or reason for the organization of the toolpaths. LazyCAM will actually try to optimize the toolpaths so that the machine is making the most efficient cuts. By purchasing the Mach3 software then the 50 line LazyCAM limit is removed, and by purchasing the LazyCAM Pro, there are many very convenient features that will be possible, like making pockets. I highly recommend these software packages. I am very selective with the products that I sell and when you buy from me, you are supporting my efforts to put tutorials on this site. You will need to download the demo first and when you purchase, I will send you an email with the license file. It's as easy as that! Don't forget to review the demo installation video.
