Re: Tool Setting Options For Routers and Mills
I'm using Clint's modified M6 version that I modified a bit more and it's working great with 4.18. Thanks again Clint for all your help. Shawn I know this is old, but did you have to tweak anything to get it to work for 4.18? It was working fine for 4.14, but now sets Z a bit high. I can likely fig...

Re: Fusion 360 Mill Post Processor for Acorn with additional Features
This is great stuff, folks! I already managed to hack my post-processor into doing what I need, but this helps me understand it a lot better.
Thanks,

Re: Anyone using Fusion 360 with 4th (rotary) axis on CNC router?
Thanks a ton guys! I tried the Haas w/A-axis PP and it actually worked OK. I also learned a bit more and modified the generic Centroid to include an A-Axis, but I got some error...can't remember...something about not being able to machine rewind? I just tried it again to reproduce the error so I cou...

Re: Anyone using Fusion 360 with 4th (rotary) axis on CNC router?
Thanks, I am able to get it to post using a PP for Haas and Fanuc. Wondering if these will work?
Going to try to "cut some air" with them today if I get a chance.
Thanks,

Anyone using Fusion 360 with 4th (rotary) axis on CNC router?
I'm pretty quickly realizing how far over my head I'm in here. I got a 4th axis rotary and got it hooked up pretty easily and configured on my DIY router with Acorn control. I'm using Fusion 360 and I've always used the generic Centroid post-processor. Do I need to modify the PP or get another one t...

Re: Who is up and running on CNC12 4.14?
My DIY CNC Router is working fine. Only issue is tool touch off. It isn't clear from the thread if this: "<cnckeith update> In-process M6 Tool Change Macros compatible with Acorn CNC12 v4.14" means that those are updated for v4.14, or if they are going to be updated. Could just try it, jus...

Re: Acorn CNC12 v4.14 has been released.
I remember from 4.10 to 4.12, you needed to copy some directories from old cncm to new one - for tool lib (I don't have) and custom macros (I do have). Same procedure for this upgrade?
Thanks,
Wally
