    Hi!
    I’m newbie on CNC but I Intend to build a 4 axis hot wire foam CNC cutter.
    The installation instructions shows that is possible to use the GCodeCNCDemo with Arduino and Adafruit Motor Shield.
    As I have an Arduino Uno R3 and a CNC Shield V3.0 (http://blog.protoneer.co.nz/arduino-cnc-shield/) is it possible to use GCodeCNCDemo on it?
    Does It needs some kind of changes on code?
    Excuse me if they are stupid questions.

    I have never worked with that shield so I cannot 100% confirm.

    If it runs on an Arduino then yes, GcodeCNCDemo will work with some modifications.
    The code has specific files for each type of controller. You can look at the existing files to see what is similar, what is changed, and undertand how to make your controller work.

    If you get it working, send a github pull request and your changes will be added back into the project for everyone to enjoy.

    It sounds like an exciting project. Good luck!

    (PS: Send video when you get the cutter working)
