I had that clamp in there while tightening the screws down.. I forgot to take it out. That's it, I can't be a surgeon and be leaving stuff behind.
Here's something else I've been working on.
ZZTouch
It's a way to automatically set Z to exactly 1" above the material to be cut. It works by touching the spindle tool to a sensor, which is nothing more than a piece of copper connected to a pin on the parallel port. The Mach2 macro lowers Z until it touches, slowly backs out until it lifts off the sensor, subtracts the sensor's depths and marks that as zero. It then moves back to +1".
The idea is to be able to use different material heights and tool lengths or how far they're inserted in the chuck and set all my cuts to 1" + the depth I want to cut. Am I off with this idea?
Thanks,
Julio
