Re: Windows 7
I just upgraded a WIN7 machine to Windows 10. NOTE: YOU MUST Have a legal legitimate version of Windows 7 on the PC with the KEY code. If you don't, don't bother.
Just for future reference if anyone needs too, Its not to hard to find the windows 7 activation #

Re: shoptask turnado lathe to acorn
Ok did some quick testing.
I reset my revs per inch again
1" =5.093088039
this made it so a 1" move moves the x axis 1" exactly
bring the x axis out to far limit of travel at x9.5 and it is at 9.52461 24 and a half thou to much. This is consistent with all other times I have done this. Its always ...

Re: shoptask turnado lathe to acorn
I reset my x axis revs per inch and it is correct now. The new number for my x axis is 5.110149884.
I also checked my machines DRO against the 2" plunger DTI and they seem to be fairly accurate with each other.
My machines DRO says 2.009

My DTI says the same thing
