thank you for your reply , i have had a look at the link you supplied for ebay & have bought a pack of 3 , hoping that theywill fit & work .
has anybody found a way to save the tool offsets without using the tapes ? i would prefer to save on to a computer now i have got the machine & a computer talking to each other .
