Hello CNCzone!
I'm a month in with my lathe and love it so far. This is my first time using a CNC lathe (except for a g-code class at the CC). I've been mostly messing around with the conversational and it has worked well for me so far. I need to make spherical shapes (a round knob for example) that requires a left hand cutter.
I know how to set the offsets (by method taught in the Tormach manual) for right hand. And setting X offset by taking a skim cut but a little confused on how I would set the Z offset for a LEFT hand tool (FWIW Tormach part number is MWLNL12-4C)
I'm still new to this and any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance for any info!!
Paul
