    X3 Simplify, straight lines it, the shortest distance from spline end to spline end and it won't let me undo it.

    X3 Prints the smallest size attributes (Location and notes) etc. Even though I have selected the next size larger. In print preview it shows the larger size. We do have a microscope on the floor so they can still read them though

    I never take our VMX 30's 10,000 spindle past 7,500 and it gets pretty warm especially when your cutting with air and not coolant coming out of the head. This spindle is an '01 with 2925 hrs on it.

    50 / 50 If the top is Z 0 then I don't have to do any explaining on burn depths. If the shape is so erratic (and know one would have a clue where it was in relation to anything) I come off the bottom. Once (Crack of dawn on a monday) I couldnt work from the top so I switched too the bottom, loaded it and Forgot to offset my tools from Z bottom Dude, I saw "Fire Under Water" !!! Luckily there was a massive angle on the part so the tool Wedged the workpiece off side ways through the vice jaws. That Mangled Collet Nut sits right here in front of me

    Search / Files created or modified, dating from when you were gone until present. You'll see just what the mice were doing!
  24. Fred @ Slate Industries
    I would: Send it in with a before and after screen shot. Also explain the steps you took to get your undesirable result. If they confirm it’s a bug, you can tell us!
