Actually, I mostly use it (the CNC) in a manual mode, using the DRO functions on Mach3. I think I've only ran about 4 or 5 true CNC programs. Most of the time I just manually enter the Co-ords of where I want it to go, and the feed rate. Sort of "Single Step CNC" I guess.
I got a little more done, mainly tidying up. But I also trammed the mill, and put up another shelf for Lathe/mill acc's and hung some toolholders on the wall.
I also discovered that one of the Stepper Motor Drivers is faulty, fortunately it is the Rotab driver, so not used so much. Got another one coming.

Got the Vinyl flooring down, looks a lot better and much easier to sweep.
As you can see I also have got another offcut to put in front of the Lathe and Mill, hopefully to catch most of the hot swarf before it damages the main flooring. :thumbup:
I also installed a few handles on the doors of the Mill/Lathe bench.
Keep tuned for irregular updates,
Tim

Mrs. Drillin wants to know, if you could do something similar with her kitchen? :lol:
Looking good Tim! :thumbup:
