IIRC that is how it did work in a previous version. I might even have an old config tree laying around that shows that. Probably about 2.2.8, so its old. I took my table apart and milled an air groove so that I could inject air to reduce the turning friction of pulling it down tight enough to stop the backlash, but got stuck looking for a method to get an air hose actually connected, and an emc controlled air valve that I could energize when emc wanted to move the table, and its been sitting there, waiting for inspiration for about 2 years now. Very cheap 4" grizzly table. I'd like to find a better one and throw money at it. This one doesn't even have a #2 morse socket in the center.
