    Re: Problems with X-Y loosing steps

    [QUOTE=ger21;2200408] When you cut a circle, and it has flat spots on opposite sides like that, it's a mechanical issue 100% of the time. If it's a software issue, I've never seen it.

    Thanks ger21 for your help.
    I agree I don't think it is the Mach3 or the PC.
    Tomorrow I'll check the steppers on the X axis. Everything feels tight but it is easy to overlook something.:idea:
