Jon,

Hi there
I have a cnc machine ordered that has two bridges. one fixed and anotherone

the fixed bridge only 2. I want to use this setup for milling and hot wire

Thanks for the info.
As for the 3PH transformer, I am not connected to the grid, got a PV and
wind generator setup with a battery pack and an inverter which will not run
a machine of this size for any useful length of time anyway.

I think the original problem of providing a better manual tool change is
possible by writing an EMC2 component and adjusting some hal files. It
shouldn't be too difficult. I've read the hal developers guide, but I am not an

I was able to increase the output voltage on a 208 generator here to 240

Any combination of axes is possible in emc, you can do XZUW and XYZUW if
that's what you prefer.

Hi John,
