Hello!
I have recently completed my Acorn conversion of an old Atlas 12x36 lathe. I bought it in pretty rough shape a few years back. The QC gearbox was missing and it had rust on almost every surface. I cleaned it up and added wanted to do a CNC conversion. This video was my inspiration.

Re: Lathe Fusion Post Request
I've tried this, but when I post the file, the M codes are not in the file. What do I need to set to have them post to the file?
It says you have to modify the post to allow this function.

Re: Lathe Fusion Post Request
Uwe,
Thank you for that idea. I was editing the files in a text editor.
What does this mean, "You can also make different templates with different parameters for SSV and FRV using G10" ? I thought the parameters were only set in the wizard.

Re: Trouble with Logitech K400 keyboard
Thanks Jacob. I have tried all your suggestions and none of them worked, but thank you.
Thanks Scott. I have the K400 not the plus or r variant. I'll try that setpoint software and see if it will work.

Can I get some help with a One Shot OD Turning
I messed something up and overwrote a file somehow.
When I try to use the One Shot turning button on the VCP, it works, but it adds a second operation for cutting a thread.
I was working in Intercon the other night on this thread and I seem to have overwritten my one shot turning button.
