Here's my last comment and then I'm blocking you because I simply have better things to do with my time. It has to be abundantly apparent to anyone who reads your posts that given the poor grammar, spelling and punctuation that for you to actually read and understand the plethora of documentation p...

Deleted. I had a brain fart. With the table moving up and down as the Z axis and not using a quill you would use the bed mill method. Sorry about that. Don't listen to me. Listen to Uwe. He knows what he is doing. Except in his wine preferences. Then don't listen to him!

The Z axis is moving towards the spindle In Mr. R's setup. It is just that the spindle is mounted on an arm that moves perpendicular to the table's X axis. Uwe's video shows it perfectly.

You seem to have your axis mislabeled. The Z axis should be along the spindle centerline of the machine. This will cause issues with the built-in probe routines, and g-code canned cycles if not corrected. I think he has his axis correctly labeled. His table moves left and right (X axis) His Z axis ...

Thank you for the answer. I will try it and hopefully don't break anything.

Keith, please somehow flash a warning up on the screen in-between F10 and F9 when shutting down CNC12. I often forget to power down the WMPG and sometimes it is days before I use the mill again. I am sure I am not the only one guilty of this lapse in thinking. Please!

Thank you. The solution was so simple. Just start a new file in Intercon. Go to the insert M &G codes and input what I wanted it to do. Once it warned me I could only put one M.code in a line I was off to the races. Simple as can be once you what to do. I didn't realize I could use that insert M...
