General opinions on Postbuilder posts

General opinions on Postbuilder posts

(OP)
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?

RE: General opinions on Postbuilder posts

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.
