David, I think you may just be seeing the result of backlash. I haven't studied the code much but the dxf looks fine to me. Can you post a picture of the cut?

General Mach Discussion / Re: General newbie set ups....

There are lots of G-code generating programs out there. I have used Solidcam and Artcam and a demo of Vectric. They all work very well. There are also some listed in the links section, cam software. Did you purchase the Lazycam pro licenses? I haven't used it much, but many of its features are unlocked when the pro licenses is in place. Ask more specific questions and some of the others will tell you if it is possible with Lazycam I'm sure.

When you say jog leds, are you referring to the leds on the diagnostics page? E jog is short for external jog and they don't lite when jogging with a keyboard.  There used if you set up external jog buttons such as a pendant. Not sure about the touch button. Adding/deleting/removeing buttons is pretty simple using screen 4. It can be found in the downloads section for free. There are several options for setting up buttons there, vb being one of my favorites as the possobilities are almost endless as to what the button can be made to do.

I've never used turbo cad, but lots of others have. Sure some of the others will post on this too.

Very, very good. That's great work. Got any videos of them in action? I love the gatling gun. Ever make one of those in a 270 caliper? I think everyone should have something like that for home defense.

No, I don't think so. You can connect the G-100 direct to PC with a crossover cable.

Finished Plugins for Download / Re: 6 Axis Modbus (Serial or TCP) Jog, Analog, and Jog function Plugin..

Over the top Scott, over the top. Very nice. I think the reason you can't post the installer is it is an unsupported file type. Will see what I can do on that.

Guys, I can't even use the plug-in yet but would be worth your time to have a look at it. Very nice.
