Way above my pay grade. :( And still the ends of the cutters are at 90 degrees. It would take 4 vise jig setups, and 2 of then can't be done because LCNC cannot rotate a coordinate system about any axis but z. Now if I could rotate the co-ordinate system about the y axis, effectively tilting the X axis, that might be usable. But since we cannot, its not usable. And I just discovered I don't have one of the backlash comps right, its carving holes about a thousandth oblong, tight on the x axis. Looks like I need to add about .25 thou to the x backlash. But I can't fiddle with that while it is running unless the show halconfig might allow me to setp another half a thou for the duration. I didn't think of that till this instant, darnit. Dumb old man... Thanks Florian. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
