Greetings all; updated the master/wheezy on th G0704 earlier today, then opened up the nema 34 mount to pass the spindle end of a nema 23 motor. I carved that square pattern without any hickups not of my doing, but that adapter plates boltholes for the nema 23 weren't tapped.
Saddled up and went to TSC where I took them out of 5x.8 x 10's and 12's cap screws. Come back, load up lcnc and home it, put the head in low gear, and load the code below. ( tap5mmx.8mm pitch-hole.ngc ) ( to tap the holes for screws in the saddle of the Sheldon or for any 5mm threaded hole) ( working in metric ) G21 g7 ( measure in mm's & diameter) ( setup a path for data from this file to hal, in this case the tpmm for g33.1's -kval) #<_tpmm> = .800 #<_z_depth> = -10.00 #<_z_dec> = [ #<_z_depth> / 10] ( go a bit farther each time) (debug, z_dec=#<_z_dec>) #<_z_tmp> = 0.00000000 G1 F750 z0.0000 ( center at touched off x, don't touch Y ) S200 M3 o100 WHILE [#<_z_tmp> ge #<_z_depth>] M68 E0 Q#<_tpmm> G33.1 Z#<_z_tmp> k#<_tpmm> #<_z_tmp> = [#<_z_tmp> + #<_z_dec>] G4 P3 (3 second pause to blow chips & buttercut the tap ) o100 ENDWHILE M5 G0 z75 M2 % This code ran fine the last time I used it, but now a click on go starts the spindle, spindle-at-speed is solidly true, but it never execs the first of 10 loops. Nor does it highlight the problem line. clues anybody, or a real bug? Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
