Now, to get this working with a Mesa 5i25 on my mill. I didn't see it listed anywhere on their site, but found it was available when they wouldn't sell me the PP+card combo.

I purchased it last week for $100 + $18 shipping. Tormach is still selling PathPilot to non-Tormach customers. You'd think Tormach would love to hear people say I own a XXXX mill but I use 'Tormach Path Pilot' to control it I am sure they could sell disks for the same price as Mach3.

But beyond that- what possible reason exists for not selling PP to anyone who wants it?Ĭall Tormach.I could not agree more. (That serial number should be worth something). By all means, tell non-Tormach owners it's guaranteed for ten seconds or ten inches of machine travel, whichever comes first, and totally unsupported without a serial number. So why would one NOT sell a branded-to-Tormach, good performing product based on open architecture (and, as noted, arguably should be available)? Upsides, great. Mach3 became a defacto standard across a huge range of machines. Seems to me that Tormach would be crazy not to sell PP to all comers. 115 is the price for a combo with a card. The restore CD is 30 bucks according to the website.
