cutter comp lead in and lead out was created by Calvino
Ok I am wondering how to write lead in's and lead out's for the software. I am used to writing the code for HAAS machines and imputing cutter comp in the offsets page. Anyone got some simple samples for me, that's be great! Also where does the diameter of the cutter go?

Ok thanks, I have only done hand coding before so yeah. I think with a little paying around I could get it to work how I want it to. I tend to sometimes engage cutter comp above the part and then i feed into it, works sometimes when you don't want a visible lead in/lead out mark

REAL good info, man thanks a ton! beats the info from the Sherline thing, makes my life a lot easier programing. I am still in a tossup between EMC2 or Mach 3 (computer runs on Linux, came from Sherline so...) other than that its really nice for getting the job done for the price

Not entirely sure, ill have to go back later and check about it. I recently had surgery so I haven't been able to get up much to work on milling stuff...
Still confused on the whole AXIS g-code/image stuff
