[QUOTE="illumi, post: 260867, member: 4654"] Thanks guys. All good posts, especially if you listened to snoop dog back in day :). Had some calibration issues on the y-axis so was trying to figure it out. Specs are repeatable to .01 mm which I get on z and x and the a axis but the y axis is giving me a headache. I get .02 out on one side of test coping and .02 on the other so a total .04 when milling at the outside of the disk but near y zero point for blank. Will try the marble and cleaning out guide rails and a different placement spot. Who knows maybe a belt issue. Machine brochure says axis separated from housing for accuracy which I am a bit confused about. Not sure what that means or how the y axis which has guide rails built into the bottom of the machine could even be separated from the housing. Oh well, back to milling test copings. [/QUOTE]
