CSS/G96 for other than X-axis?

Yea, that was backwards

Makes sense in hindsight: I want the V-DRO to move at twice the speed of the joint, not half.

But everything's working now: switchkins, subspindle synch to main with CSS and the parting slide programmed as "X".

I couldn't compress a GIF small enough to embed, but I've attached a short video as a ZIP file.

parting_slide.comp and the four M-codes are all commented pretty heavily for future reference.

I think this is nearly the last hurdle on the DIY lathe.  Only big challenge I can think of is mounting tools for subspindle work.

Thanks again @Aciera, couldn't have done it without you.

Nice!
