    Thanks Peter.

    I draw my work up in MM and here's the first string of G-code...

    G17 G21 G40 G54 G64 G90
    (MOP NAME: Horizontal Roughing)
    T2 M6
    (6.35)
    G01 X63.2090 Y40.2805 Z6.0000 F1200.0
    X40.2805 Z-2.3453 F1200.0
    Y43.1855
    X182.9487
    Y40.2805
    X40.2805
    X38.6930
    Y44.7730

    I can see G21 in the first line of code... so does that mean the job will be cut in MM even though I set Mach3 to Inches?

    Brad.

    Dont worry... I just tested this code. It seems to be running to scale. Thanks for your help Peter.
