    Hello all. I’m a newbie and I made a floating plasma torch head for my lead 1515

    Head switch is wired to probe.
    I’m not clear on how to set the offset on the z axis probe switch.

    I would like to use fusion 360 and not the open builds CAM. however when I try the hello world test I’m getting errors

    How do I tell fusion I would like to probe at every cut? I have entered all the cut parameters ie kerf cut height Peirce height etc. travel speed. 70FC4AF7-65B6-4847-BD9B-B9C3DC1C72A6.jpeg 6B176F04-1493-4092-B616-EA4B65A3B921.jpeg 47FE8415-5975-4F18-868E-F457527111B6.jpeg

    use the 'spindle on/off delay', the popup help says
    "Time (in seconds) the spindle needs to get up to speed or stop, also used for plasma pierce delay"

    Help pops up when your mouse hovers over the setting for a second or two... for every setting.
