curious errors after converting INI from MM to Inch

ok, i scoured the web, and found this: www.newmantools.com/tech/pitchconversions.htm

so with a 5mm ballscrew, i enter a value of 5.08 threads per inch?

~Travis

Yes.

As 1 inch is 25,4mm, so 25,4/5=5.08

5.08 revs of ballscrew means 25.4mm of travel and that is equal to 1 inch.

dang, so that's where my math went wrong! i tried 5/25.4, instead of 25.4/5!

Thanks!

ok, i have a functioning machine again! i finally had time to get out there and "play".

so now i just have to review both config files and compare notes. after i make a backup of the working config, that is.

I don't think that there are any INI changes from 2.7.0 to 2.7.14
