While looking for options to get my Denford Micromill off of DOS and running under something more user interface friendly I came accross this very elegant solution. It’s a plug and play conversion to GRBL for the SmartStep/3 that looks pretty well designed. I was hoping for a conversion with the option of a 4th axis but at less than $100 and the appeal of plug and play the attraction was too strong and I immediately ordered one up and it should be here next week. It’s also open source so you can build it yourself if so desired.
