Sure here is a quick video I put together going through my homing sequence

Hope this helps

For my tinyg I setup a tool height setter using the Z-axis homing switch and a thin aluminum plate which is 1 mm thick, placed on the material. I have the switch set as normally open, attach a alligator clip to the bit and one to the aluminum plate and when I hit home all axis in tGFX the Z Axis goe...

Sure I would be happy to print them for you I just need to know what kind of material, PLA, ABS, Nylon

PM me directly and we can work it out

@AlBorland - FF is working fine for me, what is the file name you are trying to drag into FF that file may have an association that causes it to open in FF browser tab.

Thanks for the info John I am working up an Algorithm based on your info and will get it tested this weekend and post my findings. Here is a screenshot of my milling job sorry for the quality had to shirk it down to attach in forum: Screen Shot 2014-06-26 at 9.38.42 PM.png Here is a link to my rougi...

very interesting... could you use your serial port json server to serve up the serial port from a raspberry pi with a Shapeoko2 attached, and then print to it using something like your program or Easel? That would be great if it was basically a straight conversion from tcp to serial and the softwar...

Thanks John appreciate the quick fix for that ... This is so simple and extensible... but you know what I did experience is some stuttering on intricate curves seems like the planner buffer is being starved on these types of moves but I think just looking at your code it may be a tuning setting on t...

Hi John, Yes I just went through your hello world video you had posted on youtube and I am a software developer by trade and will definitely be extending the functionality. I noticed the home button did not work on either the over all homing and via each axis so was going to start off looking at tha...

Just wanted to share this with the group. I have been struggling with TGfx sending gcode to my tinyG and was looking for alternatives and stumbled upon this web based gcode sender and have run a few complex 3D milling jobs that TGfx would not run successfully and chilipeppr ran them flawlessly. I am...

This sounds similar to an Issue that was reported on the tinyG forum that myself and another user experienced and it turns out to be an issue in the firmware for tinyG and Alden is working to put up a new firmware version this weekend on the edge branch. Have a look at this thread for more details :...
