Setting Up the Lathe, EMC2

Some Video of my goofing around setting up the lathe.


Jog mode can be set to continuous or at steps on the lathe in EMC2, .0001" is the smallest.


Running a sample part in EMC2, It is a chess piece, but I am cutting air. I am just setting up the lathe and running some sample gcode to make sure things are working. I actually don't have a cutter handy anyway.


This is from a couple days ago, I was testing the stepper motor speed and acceleration in EMC2's stepper motor setup. I don't think I was actually running the speeds and accelerations listed because I did have to change the settings later on.
