I used spectracam to cut 1/2-16 threads. It works when I verified it. I loaded the cnc program into the spectra light turn program and it will verfify just fine but when I go to run the program the bit will move into the x axis but will not move on the z. So if there is someone out there to look at this file and see if some thing is not written properly.

thanks.
