TT to measure tool diamter
Anyone have any experience using a touch off tool to measure tool's diameter. Any scripts for cnc12 to include updating the tool library?

That would be of interest to me too. I have a TSR27 tool probe that is able to measure diameter as well as tool length. Perhaps one for the wish list?

Re: TT to measure tool diamter
Process would be to touch off from left side record as X1 then touch off from right side and record as X2. Formula is then Tool Diameter = X2-X1-TouchOffPlateDiameter. Spindle should be running CCW. Probably not safe for fly cutters, etc however.

Indeed - and it would be really nice if this could be automated as part of the automated tool setting macros. It seems unlikely that there would be enough demand to justify it but if we didn't suggest it, our interest would never be noted.
