Re: New To CNC
I am working on some spoil board or work holding. My tools keeps on riding up. Is there a way to lock the spindle so i can tighten the nut or just a double set of wrenches?

Re: New To CNC
I am setting up my first piece to cut. I found the auto z probe icon. My probe is a contact probe with a thickness of .2.
How or were do I enter that .2. I tried to enter it in the G54 wcs offset. I don't think it worked.
What is your method of choice and why?

Re: New To CNC

Re: New To CNC
I am sorry I missed that. Is that under utility/ wizard? Or somewhere else?
