Nice set-up Vince.

It seems that your wife is a lot more understanding than mine.

Yup ! - it's all Marcel's fault. I have bad dreams about cubes. I just want to get back to the wood routing.

SmoothStepper USB / Re: SS DISCONNECT SAFETY CONCERNS

I am in full agreement with Jeff here. I have had the SS for some time and it is an excellent product. OK I use the E-Stop function but my real Emergency Stop disconnects power to all functions of the machine instantly. SS has not killed a man as the thread title states (in the event that I am wrong then prove it !).

That's neat Ed.

One thing that Marcel should have mentioned in his posts is that once you make one of these cubes, all your friends that see it want one too.
So making just one is no good, you have to make lots.

I think that we all deserve to see a routed or engraved 'Road Runner' after all this. Come on WAC make something real good.

Me too, glad you have resolved the problem.
I expect to see postings of stuff you have made with it now it is working OK.

The nice thing about this forum is that although there must be a million possible causes for any particular problem, everybody is eager to help and sooner or later the answer to your problem will be found.

I think Zafar is to be commended on his use of Mach. We all know how good it is but it takes a lot of (I don't know the best word to use) 'flair' to apply the program to an unusual application.

Well done Zafar.
