Hi Russ Thank you for your help, I went online to the tutorials for mach3 and found and repaired my problem
the problem was in motor tuning, they were both set to 2 and should have been set to 0
I reset them to 0 and retested and I got 6" outside square and 4" inside square PERFECT
But how could they have gotten off in the first place? I remember having ti do a force shut down
on my computer would that do it???
