Is any work being done to include wear offsets or assignable offsets in Linux CNC..

Have you seen thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.emc.devel/6891 ?

I don't think that the patch has been included in Master, though I believe that it could be.

This is great thanks. Where do I go to learn about patches? Using 2.5 Version now.

"man patch"

But you also need to be able to build LinuxCNC from source, so it's not a trivial undertaking.

I take it I just don't add the features = 64 line to my ini file.

No in 2.5

Possibly in Master. But I don't know if the patch has been accepted. (the problem is that no-one feels they have enough knowledge to accept patches)

We are using the patch from the Link above and it works great. This is a very handy patch to LinuxCNC. I would like to see the wear offset table changed to accept diameter values but it is a great patch that moves LinuxCNC closer to a commercial control.

Where is the best place to suggest changes that lean more to the industrial commercial side of this industry. Owning a machine shop and just recently finishing our first LinuxCNC retrofit on a Turning Center we are just now starting a list that is "different" than we are used to. We have been running Fagor, Cincinnati, Fanuc and Mitsubishi controls and they are all a little different but handle certain things like wear offsets in a similar manner.

Possibly on the developers mailing list.
