    DeskCNC to HAAS controller

    I was wondering if anyone out would know how to set DeskCNC up to output G code for a HAAS SL20 lathe???? I have some model aircraft wheels and brakes that I drew up in 3D and want to convert the STL to G code so I can send the files to my brother to run on his lathe. Any help would be most appreciative.

    Greetings, I am new to DeskCNC. I am just using the CAM to create the G-code. I use a different controller software. I set the post processor to ISO G-Code-ABS ARC Centers on the Options - Misc TAB and then use SAVE Toolpath CNC function under FILE to create G-Code files generated from the Pocket and Contour function to cut parts. I only cut 2D projects from .dxf files.
