The default lathe setup has only 2 axes. It is not obvious to me how
to add the third axis for the speed knob. Can I add the third axis

Something I forgot to say last
Try using 'DEBUG'. I have the same problem with 'PRINT'.

I just do that in G code for my BP until I fit a proper motor.

Thanks John, Andy, Chris and Christopher.
The DEBUG did what I needed for now. I left the m3 s#71 because I
use it to set the speed (PWM) on the little JET 9x20 and it also
gives me a target for the SPINDLE at SPEED LED.
I still have a lot to learn about widgets. Now that I think about it

It's a very Heath Robinson[1] solution, but a small stepper motor

Andy,
That solution has occurred to me and it might be the way I'll go. I
have the stepper and the gecko to drive for it and room in the

drive (similar to bicycle chain and sprockets) I can just put a

I know where you are coming from, I am considering a CNC conversion of
a Rivett 608. If you thought that the Monarch guys were going to
