Hello
As i am a beginner and being the 1st time that i use my cnc for the first time to do a service in 3D using Mach3, I have a doubt ..
The work itself takes up 31 Horas be done..

I do not know if it's still lack of practice in which it could put it faster or actually takes that long...


(EndMill ball nose 3.2mm to make a dragon on a plate with 160mmx210mm)...


Can I stop the Mach3 and writhe in a paper the line where i click STOP and tomorrow reconnect everything and continue from there?


Question from a newbie ...

Never main...
Try and today the coordinates maked diference of 3/10 of a millimeter and messed up the 7h work...

Im going to try again...

Home the machine before you start, and after you zero the axis, right down the X, Y, and Z offsets.
The next day, re-home the machine, then make sure the offsets are still the same. After that, you can use Run From Here to start wherever you want.
If you don't have accurate home switches, you'll have trouble with alignment.

Thanks for the tip.



To see if I understand...
Translation to me to understand it's some times hard...

Start the work, then click on (stop) in mach3, then right down the position where it's stoped x,y,z offsets, the line of g code, put the cnc in (home) then shutdown pc...
Tomorrow turn everything on set (home) again then put axis in the offset that even rightdown put the line in this case (140439) then start?
I did almost everything there except homing the machine before shutdown and power up....
That was my mistake right?
