Lathe Macros

You shouldn't need to be registered.
I have collected all the versions as .zip files here:

github.com/andypugh/LatheMacros/releases

You should expaned the "Assets" of v3.0 and download the .zip file.

that's great, thanks a lot, I'll let you know what happens as soon as I try it

now it works:)) and I really like the interface, unfortunately it won't start the program, it shows in the background that the program is running (and this red line also signals that the gcode is being executed, but the axes don't move) however, I usually edit the start line of the gcode to would the program work or ``run from here'' for some simple program, here I am not able to see the lines of the program.. is there a possibility for linuxcnc to export the gcode through this macro so that I can edit it?

or maybe I should try to edit this routine to skip some of the first lines of execution, add or similar..maybe is CSS problem?

It's all in CSS and feed-per-rev so you need spindle speed feedback or there will be no motion.

Do you have a spindle encoder?

Oh, and 100m/min (the default) is much too fast for a HSS drill, best change that now before it's too late.
