Re: Table (axis 1) stutter
hello Daniel
We all here use eCabinets to create the TWD files. You talk about "lash" and that I must look to see how much. How do i do that? (for example on table axis, to see how lash it have) Our machine will be 2 years old in August.
Thankx for the reply

Good afternoon
I did a drawing with Autocad R14 that I want to cut out, but Control Nesting does not want to see the outlines that I have made with Sphere's and Splines, is that normal or is it just me?
Thanks
