Accuracy of section 'DIY, hobby, and personal CNC'
[edit]I believe the movement for open systems in this space was essentially abortive. Source: looking in to it recently for work. This section ascribes potentially too much authority to its tone and the assertions are dated (~2000-2010 era). Someone should rewrite it. Please do not delete it, it is valuable content. Just get it toned down and rewritten. prat (talk) 19:42, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks - I'd like to edit this sentence particularly "Derivations of the original EMC software have also led to several proprietary low cost PC based programs notably TurboCNC, and Mach3,"
- I am the author of TurboCNC, and although I'm thoroughly flattered that my work is mentioned in this article, it's not a derivation of EMC but a completely separate software that was written independently starting in the mid-1990s. (Pascal vs C, different g-code dialect, and runs on DOS vs Linux). Art's (Mach3) situation is similar - he was writing his control software as a side project initially and as I recall used some of the EMC code as inspiration for the constant velocity control sections but it's not a port or copy.
- A suggested rewrite: "Parallel development by dedicated hobbyists has also led to several proprietary low cost PC based programs notably TurboCNC, and Mach3," Dkowalcz (talk) 09:48, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
