    cnc hand held remote

    We are new to the cnc world and have a ShopSabre 36x36 router. One of the things we have encountered is that it is difficult to align the x,y and z to the work from the keyboard. As a result we work with two guys. A friend of ours is a machinist and recommended a hand held remote for operation.

    Do you know of a remote that works with the WinCNC software and if so where can I get one?

    Thanks,

    My dynatorch has a joystick option, i have the joy stick but havent used it...
    My key board is wirerless so if i need to line up on something i take it over to the table. Not sure what the range is on the keyboard, i only go about 8 feet away from the computer and it works fine.
