    Does the feed control in the Open Builds control increase the feed to 200%? Timing mine doing the same operation, I can hardly tell the difference between 100 and 200, Maybe, if any, a few seconds in a 3 minute operation.
    Anyone have any luck with this?

    "if" the feedrate is not being limited by Max Feedrate setting in Grbl Paramaters. It wont allow you to exceed safe limits.

    You also wont notice a full 200% increase as rapids are not modified

    So, where do you find the Grbl parameters? I am using fusion to create tool paths and the openbuild post processing grbl. Would I find the parameters inside of the fusion software? Or, are they located inside the openbuild control software?

    Thanks!

    Grbl Settings tab

    I'll say it once more :) reading that ENTIRE Grbl Wiki is on the todo list - knowledge is power: See (Click the blue link): gnea/grbl

    GRBL parameters are stored in the controller, so...
    not in fusion, not in the postprocessor, but accessed through the OpenBuildCONTROL which is the interface to the controller.
    (there are other interfaces, UGS, bCNC among others)
