OK. Although my video doesn't show an actual broaching operation my ELS does have a BROACH mode which is exactly like threading other than that the spindle doesn't have to be turning. So no alarm that spindle speed to high/lo. One would also still have to index and lock the spindle somehow.
Video is only a few years old but the ELS project was started in 2006. Can't believe it's been that long. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArRQhpHGtro Oh and a warning. Feed rates are much slower than Les Newell's so it's kind of s snooze video. Really should do one where it does an actual slot.
