If you add a G61 at the start of your code it will work OK.

Perhaps read up on Constant Velocity, Axis Velocity and Axis Acceleration for just how it affects the toolpath.

Excellent work Pete and especially neat wiring - it's certainly a machine to be proud of.

While you are on with mach4 not installing

If you have win 10 N the last two dev releases industrial or hobby will fail with missing mfplat.dll after contact with James it’s a windoze problem . You will need to dl and install the media feature pack from MS it seems that newfangled have put in place the ability to have a vidieo window

Good catch Stuart.

Space is a bit tight at London’s Heathrow International and because of it’s size the Airbus A380 can be a scary sight when landing on 09 Left.

(The planes don’t actually pass over the top of these houses but they are very close).

As ZASto has already said - check your 'Z axis calibration? (steps per)'

The Mach3 Settings page has an Axis Calibration Set Steps per Unit - just click and follow the on-screen instructions to check your Z axis steps per are correct.
