Hi Everyone
I am very new to this all but find the whole thing facinating. Before I commit to buying a miller for my woodcraft hobby I wanted to see if I could get to grips with the Gcode programming first. I have installed Mach3 and another program called CNCSimluator which has a lovely 3d model of your component.
My code works well in CNCSimulator but when I put the same code into Mach3 it throws up and error about the Radius to end of arc differs from radius to start (line 22)
Heres the code, I am really sorry if this is a blatently obvious mistake but I am totally stumped.
Thanks in advance
