Hi, Great looking machine! The Spindle has an encoder on it. So if you want to Tap. What is the largest Tap you can drive? What is the top and low RPM?

These pictures show how I set my X2 4th axis up for Tools. I mounted the quick change tool post on the side.

Hi. I guess I'm not doing something right. 
This is the gcode i'm using for testing the 4th Axis servo motor
M940
SwapAxis(6,3)
M3
Y.5
Y0
M5
M30
The servo does not run? Y Axis moves.
Does the servo require a Relat to run?
Thanks
Bob

Steve, could you post the gcode just for an example on how to do it. No need to add comments.
Thanks
