Mark How many pepole are working on all the past issues with lathe that have been around for years now? Why do me have to pay for matianece for lathe, is it all the new options in lathe, is it all the new tool library options, is all the fixes in canned cycles, maybe it all the new tool paths in lathe, the work arounds these issues are free here on the forum.

  11. quote: Interesting stuff. Nick Moffitt from Verisurf was in my little tightly packed shop this morning and he's got some good stuff.... I think his software (which is pretty kewl I might add...) and an arm will do what I need pretty easily. I also think I'm going to need a CMM to keep the eye candy guys happy. I think I'll be adding one to my shop in the near future. I understand it will write probing routines for my horisontal as well. Good stuff. Jim I told ya to check out Verisurf. Tim I should start getting a comision
