Gene mentioned earlier of the pride in pricing scheme at McMaster. I've
always found Grainger to be a high price establishment without the McMaster
shipping policies.
Zoro Tool sounds like a great idea. How quick was their shipping?

Is Carbon Tet still easily available? I've used it for cleaning stuff back
in my USAF days, along with 1,1,1 Trich. I know Trich ain't available
anymore.

Hello!
Just a quick question:
Can anybody share a piece of g-code that creates any kind of thread on
lathe with LinuxCNC 2.5.0 on it? I need it for testing and since I do not
have lathe I do not have any code for it. I just would like to be sure that
the code itself is flawless. I do not mind

It typically only needs a single G-code line with a G76 statement. Or
perhaps I am misunderstanding the question?

I have electro-mechanical brakes and resolvers on 6-axis robot and would
like to restore last positions of joints between LinuxCNC sessions. I
tried to use position file and it seems to work perfectly, except when
using HOME_OFFSET. In such case the restored positions are wrong.
