I have no clue of how generate G-Code.
I have never used a cnc machine before.
I'll worry about that once the machine works.

I also need to buy a ton of grease nipples for the linear rail bearings because many of the existing ones are clogged and broken.
Somehow, they are impossible to unclog.
(No clue) :(

Leave them in breaks cleaning fluid for a night, should unclog... hopefully
Use an LED and a resistor on a parallel port pin and gnd, look at them turning on and off while joging in LinuxCNC.

Would soaking the grease nipples in Jig-A-Loo unclog them?

Each pin has a status LED on the PMDX-122 breakout board.

The CNC machine has no stepper drivers yet.

It does not actually move mechanically.

LinuxCNC does not really resume when the E-Stop button is released (unlocked).

You have to start the G-Code over again.
