True John. Axis shows the result in inches, or millimeters, as selected by view mode, independently of the machine mode. But this is one of those days I shouldn't have chewed thru the straps to get up. Before I was anywhere near done, the backgear in the headstock started squawling someplace internally. I knew there was a bent shaft as that was obvious from the cyclic gear noises, but this was a dry bearing (or lack of a bearing) as it was just as noisy in neutral, so pumped about 2 cups of vactra thru it, made no effect on the noise, so I picked up the horn & gave LMS some CC numbers for a new, complete, headstock, about $130 in an "if it fits it ships" USPS box. And so it will sit until that arrives, and I transfer the chuck, with the workpiece still mounted, to the new spindle, along with the timing belt pulley used for input. Roger said I should have it by Friday. The SDD arrived today, along with a new PSU, but that may wait till it crashes again as it has not crashed since I reformatted the drive & installed the new hybride-binary image. They can sit on the shelf as spares till then. In the meantime, backups by amanda have been resumed, so I'll have the ability to recover to the state it was in at about 2:30 each morning. Tomorrow afternoon, Orkin will be here at 13:00 to see what sort of an insect infestation I have in the deck substructure & give me a price to do that building like the house, with a full perimeter of protection. UNK if he can get to enough of it on the back ppty line though. Too much fencing, but they have a couple dogs I don't want to hurt. Thanks for the help.
