Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] AXIS CALIBERATION AND THE SAME OLD DIRTY POSITION COUNTER STUCK PROBLEM!! !

GREAT Babar!

I am at a total loss as to why that would happen... but it is good
to see that the problem is solved. Paul might have the best insight
as to what is going on. You are right- we need to understand
what happened here.
