Many people like to use a gamepad or controller to move the CNC router around to position it for zeroing out the axis before a job, or moving it out of the way to put down a new workpiece. I have a few left over instruments from my RockBand days, so I decided to use that! 😀
This video walks you thru how to set it up and hopefully inspires you to use a unique controller of your own! 🙂
I used the following links to help get this idea off of the ground! Hopefully they can help you too!
