Gcode Simulator

Anyone ever use either of these to simulate a cut job.

The first one you copy and paste your code into the program

The second one you just open your gcode.nc file

How much to purchase this software.
Do i need to no anything with the controller board.
I am already using grbl 1.1f

Most G-Code previewers are free, see the list at:

There are a couple of commercial ones, and some communication / control programs include previewing functionality, including some of the commercial ones as noted by @UncommonDad

$49 and it works with GRBL 1.1. It has lots of other features as well.

But like Will said, most previewers are free if that’s all you’re looking for.
