Hood,
Tried values from 20 to the recommended 200 still not reliable.
I will explore using my lathe ( by modifying the code for X and Z ) as it is very accurate and can run at higher feedrates reliably.
It could be a machine problem, ie; motor/use higher amp settings, the skipping is a real bear as you don't even hear it happen....can feel it if you keep you hand on the motor.
