Welcome to the forum Gary. Just a heads up that your intro says you're from Scunthorpe UK, but you're flying the Stars and Stripes as you must have selected USA somewhere.

Hi Ericka
What machine do you have and how are you getting on with it?

I used to have a 6040 with parallel port control. Recently i completed a build of a bigger machine. I am using UC300eth and uccnc. The machine works extremely well...i use it on aluminium no problem and also to cut steel plate when i make control panels:)

Hi Andy
I noticed that but can’t find how to change it.

Thanks Andy and Kit. I’m looking forward to producing some nice wooden bits. I have one of the Chinese laser and routers. I’ve mastered the laser part of it just struggling with the router part. I’ve got my project to the machine but when I try to cut it out it just moves right down to the bottom left and just keeps running.

Afraid I won't be able to help you Gary, as my CNC still only exists in my imagination. But think if you post a separate thread describing the issues you're experiencing, someone will be along to help. . . . . .
