In Mach3 Go to "Config" "ports and pins" "motor outputs" click to put a green check mark in A "Dir Low Active" click accept click ok you should find your A axis if working in reverse of what it was.

OK, thank you all for your replies I Created a construction Victor shape and created an oval shape and squeeze it inside And using note editing I almost have it . now the hard part is to create slope pocket I have read some posts regarding using molding techniques which no mention for any slope bes...

Hey that's what it's all about finding ways to get what you want, very pleased you got it sorted.

" I created the outline for the inside pocket with the outline tool in the modeling tab. The outline is jagged but that doesn't have anything to do with the model carving. I think the pixelated model is the problem." That could be your problem so don't use the model outline tool, make model 2X large...

drop me a PM with an email and I can send you the STL it is my own design so no copyright

We use PCD cutters for cutting stone they chip very quickly and you can't sharpen them yourselves they have to be sent away for re-lapping. Sometimes I have used a ground and polished lathe tool (parting off tool) held in a wooden handle to scrape the edges of Acrylic then after a quick wipe down wi...

In Aspire on your 1st computer go into File, Application Date folder, Post P, 05-wrapped,Mach, select all 4 PP files or any 1 copy, go into same folders on 2nd computer and paste, you then should be able to use selection from save toolpath.

Phill

Hi, The PP you need is one of the Mach2/3-wrapX2A ATC(inch)(*txt) or you might need to look for the one wrapY2A depending on how your 4th axis is oriented to, to find them when you have made a toolpath and you want to save it to use there is a drop down box. toolpaths.JPG Make sure if your running W...
