That's really clever! Break a laser beam, eh? That's why the spindle needs to be running. Using WinCNC?Gary

wow!
fascinating carousel
like the way it measures "spinning" tool, getting a dynamic zero
mounting to the gantry carries it with the you, rather than having to goto a table location to zero tools

If I had to do this, I'd leave my FTC switch intact. There are other ways to get inputs. But it's a pretty expensive upgrade at around $480 just for the 50mm or 80mm forks.Gary

Yep.. Gary is right. There is no reason to replace the pressure version of the FTC switch to gain a couple thousandths of hysteresis. The conductive versions, well, that's another matter.Gary Campbell
