Dont even know where to begin.
Could start with the fact that my shoptask came with no kind of instructions other than the owners manual, which is cool but I also got the cnc upgrade. There is nothing there at all giving me a clue on wtf to do...
After playing around with for the first time today, there is an on/off switch for the cnc on the left end of the machine. Least thats what I assume it is. Just above that there is a toggle switch, which I assume is to toggle between lathe function and mill function. In the up position the mill works anyway. In the down position, nothing effin works..lol. Might be noticable, but in case it isnt, Ive got half the hair on my head tore out now.
Also, on the milling part, a positive move in the z axis moves the quill down and a negative move moves the quill up, just the opposite of every cnc I have laid hands on.. anyone else have this problem?
Last ?, for now anyway, while in the Mach3 program for milling, I cant jog the table or quill. If I leave the toggle in the mill position and use the turning program (mach3 turn) then I can jog the quill up and down and move the table in the x..
Please help, please?? lol.
If its easier and you have the time, give me a call, 1-815-973-7912, or PM me you number and Ill give you a call on my dime...
