Err yeah..... Should have had a second coffee before posting that! :oops::oops::oops::rolleyes: Alex.
Hi @G-Wizard, there are 4 *.g files in the Duet firmware for homing - homeall.g, homex.g etc. They all start with a G90... - I inserted a new line...
What are Dorchester Timber like - not much detail on their website. Alex.
As well as whole boards (6 - 8 foot long) they have a section for smaller bits where you can rake through to your hearts' content! Alex.:thumbsup::)
I still have a stock of old wardrobe panels - the older they are the more likely they are genuine mahogany. We also have easy access to British...

Don't worry about that @Colin Mccourt, last time I bought a pack of 10 there turned out to be 15 in the packet! Alex.
I'll send you a couple of fine V engraving bits. I don't know how big your rose is, but you might have to do the finishing pass with something...

This is a bit ambitious for me, but I am going to try to create a single g code system. Tool changes would still be manual. If I don't succeed I...
I'm going to have a look at how the Duet does pause and resume. It should be possible to insert a move to do a manual tool change in between. Alex.
That will be interesting @GeoffH, I don't use Vectric (sticking to Fusion 360) but I will be very interested to see the result. Alex. :)
Agreed, but the pause and resume macros have already been written. Alex.
NB @sharmstr's post processor is for Fusion 360. Alex.
You are correct in your assumption (at the moment). Things may change (if I can get my head around @sharmstr's new post processor - she has...
