hi pete i wasnt adressing your comments yeah i agree sink edm 'escapes' not 'reverses'
imo: hole poppers reverse toward the start point sinkers escape to a safe point wedm reverses along the previous path ( usually ) edm grinding , well, i never saw it reverse really not on AGie nor Elox edm grinders thats my experience tomp On 02/26/2016 11:25 PM, Pete_Gruendeman wrote: > Hi Tom:> path reversal is what you do when things are WRONG >> path reversal is not how you move to the correct position.
