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 -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
