Just wanted to ad that if it weren't for your videos, I would be completely lost on both the spindle, touch probe and onefinity machine, so thank you and keep posting.
Lars, good information. However, not sure I will ever need to know this. If so, I will remember this video. The other thing, early on, I learned that probing Z from the spoil board made things much simpler for me. I am far from an accomplished CNC operator, actually very novice. So, I need all the help I can get. Keep making these videos.
Thanks for sharing Jim. I hear there are a few people the z off of the spoil board and then add the thickness of the stock. Which ever way works for you, keep on CNCing!
Lars I just came across your videos, I subscribed to your channel. T try hey are very informative, I ordered an Elite Woodworker and I’m just waiting for it. I was using a Chinese cnc and I gave up on that. I do use Carveco also. Again great video’s and than you for taking the time to make them. Cheers Mark
Lars, I am new to using a CNC and purchased the Elite J from onefinity. Where did you learn what the parameters were for the Masso? What about the programming so I can understand what the commands on the G code lines mean? I am struggling to find a good way to hook up my cooling lines for my Pwncnc spindle. I have routed the power cord through the drag chain and have no more room. I also have the flexible but not very rigid coolant lines and they seem kink very easily, any thoughts? Lastly, how did you set you machine up so the coolant pump starts when the spindle motor engages? Thanks
Mike, no worries. For the Masso parameters, I think you may find what you are looking for here www.manualslib.com/manual/2807896/Masso-G3.html#manual or at least it will give you something to read and learn a bit about what g-codes are used by the masso. Here is a great website for learning what that g(eometry)-codes do. www.machinistguides.com/g-codes/ and one for the m(achine)-codes www.machinistguides.com/m-codes/ . I used Rowdy Romans water line clips www.etsy.com/listing/1422841273/onefinity-elite-drag-chain-bracket?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=rowdy+roman+onefinity&ref=sr_gallery-1-1&frs=1&bes=1&edd=1&sts=1&organic_search_click=1&variation0=3262931350 I bought the x and y option. These work really well, I just gave them a little more tube at each turn, I also got some silicon tubing, you can get from Amazon. As far as turning the pump on, I did not find a way, so I just leave mine run all the time. I am sure this is not needed since I am using RV antifreeze that I picked up at menards, but. I just do not want to forget to turn it on. I hope this answers your questions. :)
The weird thing (for me, at least) is that for numberline graphing moving the X and Y to the right / away from the origin is a *positive* number. In CAD using a Cartesian method - same thing - positive X/Y is to the right / up. And a positive Z is up away from the base plane.
Lars, Thanks for getting back so quickly as I have just ordered the water line clips. Any other helpful hints would be appreciated. Are you willing to share your g-code for pre drilling the spoil board and the code for surfacing the spoil board? Is there a better way to communicate with you: instagram, facebook, discord, etc.?

Thank You! That means a lot to me.

Great videos thanks you have clearly explained the origins thanks again
You are very welcome

Welcome aboard! Thank you for taking time to let me know you are enjoying the vidoes,, it is very much appreciated.
Tnx 4 ur video buddy… I hope Santa 🎅 ll’ bring you a new camera. I wish to watch you in 4K
I will ask Santa for one. Lol

Yup. But I think since you moved your origin they are now negative. Maybe??? Have you tried moving it back to front left and see if it still works?
Too time consuming adjust the program to do the work instead of all this. Way more complicated than it's need to be for such simple cuts
I agree, the video is showing how the two masso coordinates work with each other.
