[cnckeith]

might be the balls clicking, cheap ball screws make that noise.

Might they need adjusting of some sort?

Nevermind...I just found out they do not. Saw a 3d model of how they work. Now I get it.

Flood Pump Question:

The company that did my build said if I later want to add coolant its easy. Well, I want to add a flood pump. His suggestion was to DIY a small 110v fountain pump submerged into a 5 gallon bucket of coolant and use one of the relays connected to the main board as an inline switch.

Does this sound correct?

Okay, I'm about to cut the Titan 1M model (in delryn). I'm using Fusion360, Swissi Post Processor, Centroid CNC 12.
Here is my question: I have to perform manual tool changes. Will the "system" recognize this or do I have to modify code some how?

If you use manual tool change in Fusion, you will be prompted to change the tools.

From what I've searched this is a paid feature. Is there another way?

[suntravel]

No clue, I have a fusion abo, because I make parts to sell.

Good for you. I'm trying to get there too.

If you are already doing manual tool changes, post each tool path as a separate file. Then, just do the tool change before running the file.
