Hood,
1 Can you give me your opinion about a shuttle for a lathe. Are two MPG's preferable, when you compare them with a shuttle or some sort of a joystick?
At this moment I have two MPG's installed and they work fine. So I wonder if a shuttle would give a better situation I have read a lot on the forum, but most of it handles about how to install such a device, and not what the benefits are.
2 The shuttle mode on the tab screen, what does it do? What can I do with my lathe, if I put it on (at this moment nothing).
