Title: Question on coordinate system offsets
Post by: stab01 on November 13, 2020, 10:59:10 AM

Hi all,

I want to mill two equal objects in one piece of wood, which means repetition of gcode.
I'd like to change the work offset and then just copy the gcode.
Is that possible and what would the g-code command be?
I'm using Mach3.

Regards
stab01 ???

There is more than one way of achieving this type of offset machining and Roger has explained in detail those methods in his .pdf document which you can download from here;  https://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php?topic=33595.0

Hope this helps.
