I got that fixed Jon, I could put the mouses rx button in any machine and 
kill it. Mouse, button both went in the round file. And 2 brand new, 
psycho painted ones are now playing in the garage.

But now I can't make a g33.1 work in a peck routine. See my earlier post 
with the code that won't run. But I was running out of play time & had 
to go round up some dinner, so I turned stuff off including 95% of the 
lights & came in to take care of the missus.  Tomorrow I'll try a 
different version of the code as I've made up a 1 pager for most of the 
common 'merican and metric sizes & tpi's. I just used a month ago, what 
s/b the same code set to do an 8mmx1.0, and it worked as expected around 
24 times, in both steel and alu when I made the cat head and spiders for 
the Sheldon.

Thanks and take care, Jon

Cheers, Gene Heskett
