* It used to have a very nice shuttle/jog controller. We should consider purchasing one for a replacement.

** I was expecting the mach3 controller peripheral to be in the host area budget, is it? --[[User:Hef|Hef]] ([[User talk:Hef|talk]]) 14:13, 30 March 2014 (CDT)

* UPDATES:
** The CNC 3020 is gone, as is the parallel stepper controller. Need for a parallel port and a 32 bit requirement has vanished.
** Bart is bringing in a CNC machine to replace it. This will not need a computer connected, or need Mach3, as it has an integrated controller that uses a pendant.
** Bart brought the pendant back.
** A better computer that can run Bart's license of Aspire would be nice as the one there is old. This needs to be run past Bart. Said computer needs support for SD cards to get the gcode to the new CNC router.
** Elizabeth has more details, but it looks like we may get a ShapeOko 2 donated. This needs a computer. It uses a CAM package called Easel that requires a 64 bit OS. A single 64 bit computer that can run Easel and Aspire would be very nice for this area and could support design for the Bart CNC and design and running of the ShapeOko 2.
** The ShopBot needs a computer too but that was approved under a separate vote proposal.
