General Mach Discussion / Mach3 Steps per unit calculations.

« on: May 16, 2006, 09:27:25 PM »

Hi.  I was looking for a project to get my feet wet in php scripting and html forms, and rather than do something pointless, I made an online "steps per unit" calculator for Screw drives (ballscrews, all-thread, etc..) and one for belt drives too.

I know it's not rocket science, but someone may find it useful?

Anyway, if you're curious go here

Please bare in mind I've only been learning php for 2 days.

Cheers,
MrBean.

Works in progress / Mach3Turn - 1st 'Beta' release of the MachBlue Screenset for lathes

« on: May 10, 2006, 07:06:34 PM »

Santini done the biz and got the MachBlue lathe set wrapped in the installer.  So we are go for launch.

We did find a few bits that weren't quite right, so if you've downloaded the SilverBlue theme it may be worth downloading again.  Some of the file paths were incorrect and the DRO's are missing the skins on a couple of screens.

Both the MachBlue, and SilverBlue are now fixed and should run ok.

As usual, let us know if you find any "Nasties"

Download link is here:

Works in progress / 1st 'Beta release' of the 'Mach Pink' screenset.

Well I said I wouldn't do it, but I actually quite like it.

Mach Pink is out

At least it brightens up the garage when the CNC is running.

I wonder how many others like it but dare not say.
Desipte the constant jibes from santini, I know he's quite partial to it too.
