Hi Andrew,
It has been a few years since I added a spindle encoder to my lathe. I
have a web page describing the gruesome details that might give you some
ideas and some gcode to play with for cutting the disks. This encoder is
still in operation with the data being fed into a parallel port on

Hi Gene,
One thing to mention about your printer that seems to have been missed:
The USB connector... when you plug a usb cable between your PC and the

I have a laptop that exhibits similar symptoms.

Hi Gene,
look for a linux program called pstoedit.
It will read .ps (postscript) files and output in many formats including
dxf and gcode for linuxcnc. I wrote the gcode output module for pstoedit.
It only works for postscript files that have line and curve

Hi Guys
I have not messed with engrave for quite a while. I fired it up and
found my new development machine was missing fonts. I tried the qcad
fonts, but they have changed the font file format when the transitioned
from qcad V2 to qcad V3. The Qcad version 3 font files do not parse
properly.

Hi Kirk,
Looks like you have been having fun in gcode. One thing you might want

as possible. You didnt say if you were just using the wheel for a pulse

Hi John,
The symptoms you are describing indicate that your Z axis stepper
settings are too aggressive. It could be either the max speed setting or
the acceleration setting. As a first pass, try adjusting the FEED
OVERRIDE slider on the axis screen to about 50% and run the test again.
That will lim
Hi John,
You need to work on the basic machine configuration. Your problems are
not related to engrave11.
If you are seeing the Z axis dropping in height over multiple moves, it
is likely that you have either the Acc or Speed too high for the Z axis
and are losing steps. If the motors are not stal
