Yes. I've smashed one probe unit and bent the touch pin. The trouble is when you have a fast speed of 200 IPM and it decides to use that to get to the probing part which is for some reason higher than where the probe is the collision is quite spectacular and there's no time to hit an ESTOP. Really should change all probe operations to F20 or something.Confusing probing routines are why I'm on my 3rd probe! Got to say the Path Pilot routines are not confusing (thankfully!) and hence the relative longevity of my current touch probe
Hmmmmm. Looks like there's even oil in it.Oil system almost done.
X and Y axis are done. I’m lacking a 4mm T fitting to do the Z. I hope Newline has one.

And the problem with is???? LOLHobby metal workers - folks who will spend 3 hours of time and $25 worth of material and cutters to make a $6.15 fitting.
It's what we do...... And, I think, mostly we do it because the rest of them can't.....Hobby metal workers - folks who will spend 3 hours of time and $25 worth of material and cutters to make a $6.15 fitting.

He's been spoiled now. Of course this was baby steps using the MPG. Not real CAD/CAM...One T manifold made on the mill using the MPG for movement. Works like a hot damn.

I know, I know.... I hope to try an actual CAD/CAM project tomorrowHe's been spoiled now. Of course this was baby steps using the MPG. Not real CAD/CAM...
