OK, I just finish seting up my CNC router only ting im having trouble is MOTOR TUNNING. I have the TB6560 driver with 3 200oz 1.8 degree stepper motors and /8" 12" (turn per inch) acme ,single start carbon steel +/- .009 in./ft.max lead screw. I'm trying to configure the motor tuning page in Mach3. I been searching and reading in the forum on how to tune the motor but could not find how to calculate the step per.etc... not sure how to obtain or calculate it. Any help will be great.  wen i tell the machine to move 10" inch it moves 10 cm ?

wow it looks so good your machine can do it all vinyl cutter and pyro engraved nice work Tweakie, i will put another gcode to see if you can post a video of your machine cutting the design , the problem is that i thought a cnc was like a vinyl cutter,(i have a vinyl cutter and now a cnc ) that you make the design and send it to the cutter  an the machine will know where the design was on the origin   I'm reading on the forum to get more info on the program mach3 and cnc set up ii will put the link to my problem. thank you for your time and for sharing your designs.
