Here is a screen shot:

and the g-code:

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.
