Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) is dedicated to supporting our maker community in their creative process by providing shared space, shared tools, software, materials and a knowledge base to turn their ideas into reality.

Mach 4 is the control software we use to send G-code to our CNC router table at Pikes Peak Makerspace.
(We use Mach 3 for our shopmaster bridge mill CNC.)
