- not really, the mill is just `linuxcnc` (I think), and Denford is `cnc-lathe` 'RepRap' Matt
- I quite like Clearcutter for the Mill pc.
- Don't really have an opinion on what the denford PC should be called but I do quite like Colosson. It's currently multi-purpose as the slicing software for the Anycubic Photon is on it & the Roland Modela MDX-15 is hooked up too. --Danspencer101 (talk) 02:29, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
