Re: Centroid at Grizzly!

Grizzly called and said you have to buy the unlock codes from centroid :?: :?: :?: when you buy their accessories at the same price centroid ells them for with the unlock codes. I don't think the Grizzly guy has much info on this LOL. Anyway - buy from the source is the message LOL.

Re: Adding to my tool library - correct procedure question

CncKeith, Am I reading this correctly that I do NOT have to remeasure the tools at all as long as they do not change position in their holders or break. When I start a different job at a different knee height I can just set my part setup Z to zero with any of the measured tools, making sure to selec...

Re: Knee mill Low gear reversing on VFD

Maybe I was not clear. I have a hall effects or magnetic switch/lever of some kind on my mill. When it is flipped down the Mill is in low gear/slow speeds. It reverses the direction of the cutter. I need that switch wired to the VFD so that when It is in low gear the VFD will still spin the motor th...
