Thanks, the spindle housing is steel with an Al heatsink pressed on. The shaft is a straight shank ER16 chuck which has a collar at the bottom that prevents it from being "pushed into" the bearings. A ring is then glued to the shaft above the bearings pushnig the inner races together and preventing the shaft from "falling out" of the bearings. A flange at the bottom holds the outer races and provides preload. I was sceptical about gluing but it has worked years. Motor is 3phase, 1.1kW

If you mean the G-code program I'm not sure I have it anymore, besides it would be too long to post here...
If you mean 'codes and shit' for Mach3 then the answer is no - sorry. There's a working demo available at their site which is more than enough for a testrun and even for most basic home-shop machining.

i am wanting to get into cnc milling for my flight sim parts but I don't yet understand alot of it can you tell me what is the tool used is it a router? and what are the bits?

Hi,
The spindle is built from a straight shank ER16 collet chuck, a turned housing and three bearings. It is driven by a 1.1kW three-phase motor via a belt. I did use a BOSCH router at the beginning but it had its drawbacks. Alot depends on what material you're going to cut.
The 'bits' I use are various types endmills, there's a lot of different types available depending on type of material etc.
