Here is a screen shot: http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/EMC2/wonky_path.png
and the g-code: http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/EMC2/thread-ball-2b.ngc I didn't think too much about it, since the program completes properly. When I transfered the file to my HNC, which has EMC2 2.1.7, the predicted path was displayed properly. So maybe some thing changed between 2.2.1 and 2.1.7? Anyway, I made my first fully automated part today (actually a bunch of parts) -- another milestone completed. I made a movie, but it was way over 30 MB and would not fit in my website account. I'll have to figure out something else. Thank you again, to all the EMC contributors. My ballscrews, pulleys, controller and amps should be in hand next week (?) for the Bridgeport. I am a little apprehensive, because from the HNC, I have a better idea of how much work is ahead.
