I found those links still point to the LB documentation:

Thank you, sir. I think I saw a report for this but will double-check and make one if not. :slight_smile:

Update: Yes, this was reported and is being worked. Thanks again, good eyes Melvin!

Hello!

I have a question, hopefully here is okay. Will there also be turning (lathe) possible in the future? I haven’t seen that option in MillMage and there aren’t any affordable options out there in the market.
And will there be a Mach3 g-code flavor available as well?

Thank you.

Lathe support is definitely possible in the future, but it’s not on the list for the initial release.

The “LinuxCNC” Gcode flavor in MillMage should work. You will not have direct machine control using a Mach 3 board and still need Mach3 to send the generated Gcode to the CNC.

Please refer to the answers provided in this post you made just a short time ago. Turning (lathe) support and mach3 :slight_smile:
