Been using the software on the new Slant Pro since Saturday. The lathe is quieter and the tool path is much smoother. Will be switching over the mill once PeteCNC gets the 2.0 patch done on the pendant and Ninja knobs. Love the fact that things are more touch screen friendly (like the sliders).

Hey Guys;
Do you know if one purchases pathpilot for a non-Tormach machine, will updates be made available for them? I've been attempting to install PP on my Novakon for weeks now and am having the problems with the usb interface that has been mentioned in other threads! From what I've read, the latest version addresses USB issues.
Thanks ion Advance.

all updates are available to download here

Not sure how v2.0 will work, if they want a machine number to download it or not. Hopefully there is an updated version and a fresh install version.

I hope that that doesn't mean the usual ~us$40 shipping charge for any Canadian orders. It would be great if someone could upload to Dropbox or other accessible location.
I suspect that a Dropbox download is equally fast there!

Thanks but one *NEVER* want to have anything small shipped to Canada via UPS. Regardless of the value of the merchandise their handling charges are $50 or so (in addition to any applicable shipping charges, duty and taxes). USPS is a far better choice for anything under 10 pounds or so. Little Machine Shop (https://littlemachineshop.com/) also carries many Tormach items and understands how to get the best deal on shipping to Canada.
I am not messing with success. I think my Slant Pro is still at 1.7 something.
It is very happy right there too.
That said, I don't ever put new files on the machine. Just using stock files for the most part. For special ops, I just use the Conversational, so Wifi and Drop box hold little value for me.

No need.
The Gcode files on the machine are in fact transferred from my Desktop a couple years ago via flash drive. I do have backups of those.
I have a CD of Path Pilot as a backup too.
Nothing else is needed.

Its up!!
tmarks11 was correct, $20 for a flash drive +$4 shipping in the US

EDIT: Order placed!
Perhaps they listened. Shipping to US locations appears to be $4 and $10 for Canada instead of the usual $40 or so. Order placed!
Ordered and its $14 to the UK = £26.30 total
Hey Guys;
I just purchased the new upgrade without a hitch. I purchased the older version hoping to run it on my novakon. The only concern I have is that this version states in the ordering process that one must have a system operating on the old version for this upgrade to work. I'm having difficulty getting the old version to load with (what I am hoping) is problems with the usb interface and I was under the impression that this version addressed some of the interface problems. I have already purchased a new motherboard and will install it as a last resort.
This upgrade to PP is getting complicated, annoying and expensive!
Good luck with your installs.
