Mac user needs advice please.

Hi I downloaded cncplans to a Windows partition on my Mac. When I try to run it I get 'not a Win32 application'. I'm using XP Pro OS. Is there some setting I can change so that it will run? Although the download window said the file was 192 mb, the .exe file that downloaded is only 64 mb. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi
It sounds like you need to re-download the file, 64m is too small and would be incomplete, the drawings are ziped together with winzip, to un-pack them with a Mac, you need to to use a free program called stuffit expander http://www.stuffit.com/mac-expander.html

Ok, thanks alot - I thought it seemed small. I'll try again. Also I don't see the motor kit on the website. Are they to be bought through e-bay ? Thanks again, Dave

Ok, I've downloaded the plans and I've found the motor kit on the website. It looks like there may be 2 websites for Rockcliff Machine. At any rate I think I'm good to go as soon as I find lead screws.
