Why, does the spindle slow down to any signifigant degree?? This is
beginning to sound like lathe CNC really require a VERY tight control of
stepper motor speed versus Spindle speed. Wouldn't any PC have a latency in
reading the encoder, and making decisions about wether to pulse the motor
yet? What kind of latency would be considered too much?
