In the axis section you can set the position the axis goes to after
homing with
HOME = 0.1 - The position that the joint will go to upon completion of
the homing sequence.

Yes, in the case of shared home switch you set the final home position
so the axis is off the switch and set the homing sequence for one axis
at a time. You also need to set the HOME_IS_SHARED = 1 for each axis in
the AXIS_n sections.

There is interest in reviving the CNC workshop event that ran several
years in Galesburg IL then in Ann Arbor MI. The Tech Shop in Allen park
MI- a Detroit suburb, has offered to host the event. A meeting has been
set to discuss the idea on Friday, April 25, following the setup of the
NAMES
Hi Ron,
Yes, I am interested, both as a vendor and for talking
at seminars. Is this being considered for 2014 or for
the next year?
Unfortunately I will not arrive at NAMES until Saturday
morning, so I cannot make it to the meeting.
The Tech Shop space looked nice when I was there just
before
It would be interesting to know if there are any examples of controllers
with mill tool tables that include tool shape. The lathe has tip radius,
plus front, back angles and orientation. I would like to have end mill
corner radius or v angle and full depth diameter. I'm wondering if there
is
The control on our Haas TM-1 mill has a diameter
column on the tool offset table. I think this is used
by the control only for automatic cutter compensation.

Yeah I know the Haas has the diameter column as well as wear column for the
TLO. I am quite surprised that LinuxCNC does not have these most simple
items let alone radius and shape comp.

Take a look at the tool description(s) available in APT.
If necessary just download the whole package. The guys did a really good
job of html docs. :-)
How you adapt that to something else I have no idea. ;-)

Good luck man. I would love to see wear columns for each of the two mill
related offsets length and diameter. Similar to the Haas and many other
controls where you just input the base number into the length and diameter
columns and then input any adjustments you make at the control into the

One thing I've always thought would be super useful
would be for the control to be able to share tool table
info with the CAM software. You set up your tools on
