Hello,
I'm looking for opinions here. Pros and cons. You know.

Lets say you have a vertical machine center that has an optional 4th and 5th axis.

would you create and maintain 3 seperate posts, one for each potential machine config? i.e 3-axis, 4-axis, 5-axis.

Or one 5-axis post and use it even if the machine is set up like a 3-axis?

I've always created different posts for each configuration. Much simpler to maintain. Each one contains the post header information describing the configuration. It gets very convoluted to create multi-purpose posts in my opinion.
