So no need for anything quite so elaborate graphicly. As for workpiece missmount rotations I use the align kits pieces with my own pyvcp buttons to set or cancel the coords corrections.
Looks like it would need some mods today to account for multiple spindles. Its old code in that regard. > Any comments about it? Or perhaps other Probe installations? I have never used a 10k spindle speed. 500 revs maybe, but I use a capacitor across the probe connection to store the first contact long enough to register with linuxcnc, and I probably move slower such that the spin only moves .0001" per rotation, giving me .0002" repeatability. when probing Z, I use a bit of pcb as a live contact, turning the spindle backwards with the mill in the spindle serving as the ground. I can use the same bit of pcb for weeks without making a visible contact on the pcb. This is cute, it would impress the visiting frogs, but I won't change how I do it to this. OLd habits I guess. > Thanks > John > > > "ELS!
