Re: Upgrading a Gorilla CNC from Flashcut to Acorn
Yep, I also would use a small SSR, since ENA is not time critical.
Or if the drivers are enabled by default, I would skip connecting ENA, since CNC12 can force home after E-Stop but not if a single drive is disabled.

Re: Video Walkthrough of How I Use the Acorn
This chart was supplied with the probe I guess? I have used some types of probes in the <200€ range and made probemaps with them. Non was as good as a KP3, but maybe ok for hobby.

Easy way to solve this is a timer relay in the servo enable wire active at power on.

Re: nc files
default paths are defined in the pathl.ini file, but you can navigate to any folder.
I use /ncfiles as working directory, and store files from done projects in other folders for reuse later.

Re: Threading with Acorn lathe Pro
This is clearly explained in the manual and since most threads are symmetrical, easy for the user to work with. Even more advanced is optithreading and incremental infeed. https://www.sandvik.coromant.com/en-us/knowledge/threading/thread-turning/how-to-choose-infeed-method-in-thread-turning-operatio...
