Hood, could you clarify how to do that?

Also my jog is now going really slow no matter if i change the feed rate or not.

This is my first post! Finally have and issue i cannot get around.

So i have been trying to test the accuracy on my X3 cnc conversion and i am running into a strange issue. with a dial indicator, if i move in the -x direction .100", each time it jogs the indicator goes back to 0... cool. Now if I move .100 in the x+ direction the first move goes to zero and each move after that in the same direction keeps adding .001 so it is .005 after 5 moves. The weird thing is when i change direction back, instead of going to .005 it goes back to zero!! And if i keep going in the same direction.. it goes back to zero every time!

Any thoughts??

Thanks!
